Introduction

In many successful organizations, all employees and stakeholders of these given

organizations who make up the teams that are responsible for their success always work

harmoniously. When an organization’s employees or team members that work on certain projects

leaders in organizations need to come up with or design their teams in such a way that they will be

productive and meet the company’s goals.

It has been agreed upon by professionals that the effectiveness and efficiency of an

organization are propelled by the effectiveness of the organization’s management, the team that is

working on a given task within the company, and the ability to solve problems when they arise

project management team to come up with a good design of the team that will facilitate/aid the

successful completion of the project at hand. According to the demands of an effective team, its

design must accommodate certain features such as cooperation and coordination among the team

members (Gupta, 2014). The members of an effective team need to also have good communication

a way that coordination and cooperation between the employees are allowed, the team will be
