Team Collaboration

1.      How do leaders deal with conflict? From your personal experience, share a brief summary of a conflict situation and discuss how the leader (you or someone else) dealt with it. Did the leader display a particular style of conflict management? Was the style effective in this situation? Why or why not? Can conflict be beneficial for an organization? Why or why not?

2.      You have been assigned the task of assembling a team to accomplish some task or project in your organization. What do you do? What is important for you to know? What do you need to consider? What problems might you encounter? Discuss the process you would follow to select members and assemble a productive team.
