I believe the two most value resource within are team is
communication and leadership. In order for a team to respond
and know what to do, the team needs a leader and
clear communication level. A leader is a leader for a
reason and that is to lead. This does not mean to just
do what you want and how you want. When you are
a leader, you should always explain your reasons when you
have made a decision that regards your team. With that
being said I do believe the leader of a team should be
the one determining how team resources are used but with
communication. When it comes to changes to the availability
of resources I am not sure how to put it to words
to explain how it affect team dynamics. The best way I
can and hope that I have the understanding correct about
team dynamics is that each person on the team may have
their own ideas about how and where the team resource
should be put to use. It can shut down the team
motivation and desire to continue to work together. It may
affect the total outcome of the project itself, either negative
or positive. The most important project management and planning
skills that is needed to keep a team on track towards
their goal is communication and check in on each members
of the team to ensure they are on track or need help.
You want to make sure that each team members have a
position to work on.
I am usually good at leading and delegating authority and
usually be chosen without me asking to lead. I listen to
everyone and don't judge. I am known for giving the best
advice and resolving issues. I believe each individuals unique
perspective is the most valuable resource within a team.
Without that, the content for their project would be limited
and lacking in color and diversity. I feel every person
within a team has an important role in deciding what
resources are used and how they are used, one person
shouldn't take full control over everything or the project will
feel imbalanced. If there are limited team resources, then
there might be more disagreements within a team because
there are limited options in how to move forward respectively.
I believe strongly that the most important skill needed to
keep a team focusing on the end goal is the rate in
which they communicate with one another and collaborate their
needs and the projects needs. I think personally I work
better when I am being led, so it would be a little
difficult for me initially to give outward opinions in a
team, it is definitely something that I have to get used
to in order to be proficient in the future. Everyone should
be responsible In making ideas for the team , because
everyone should have an opinion. A team can be defined
as two or more people working together to interdependently
to meet a specific goal or purpose. Outside of this, a
team can be for the long term or come together for a
few hours. Group dynamics can be understood as how team
member’s and performance.team with positive group dynamics tend
to have team members ww who trust each other They can
work towards collective decisions and they are held accountable
for outcomes. A team with good group dynamics may be
constructive and productive. Project management is not an easy
job. In fact, it’s several not-easy jobs, including the initiation,
planning, executing, controlling, and closing of a project. Even
more difficult, that project is delegated to a team of your
choosing, given specific goals to achieve over a defined
timeline for a determined budget.There are alternatives as far
as the proficiency phrasing goes, as well: Advanced: native,
fluent, proficient, advanced, mother tongue, upper-intermediate. Mid-
range: intermediate, conversational, competent, professional. Beginner:
elementary, beginner, basic, pre-intermediate, limited working
proficiency. In my opinion the best way a team utilizes
resources is by having open discussion about where the
resources would be most effectively utilized.Changes in availability
in resources can certainly cause friction in a team. When
these changes happen it is best for the team to understand
their situation as a whole and reallocate resources as necessary.
Communication is always the number one skill that I consider
in a team. Communication stands far above any other skill
in value to me. Teams that are able to communicate
effectively are leagues ahead of teams that cannot even if
those teams have far more resources. The most valuable
resources with in a team include tangible and intangible
resources. Some important tangible resources can be inventory,
facilities, machinery, and personnel. Some helpful intangible resources
would be creativity, determination, and communication. Both tangible
and intangible resources are essential for any team project.
Having the right resources can make or break a team.Having
the ability to adapt to the lack of resources is also a
great skill to have when working in a team setting. When
resources are depleted, this can cause doubt and uncertainty
among team members. For example, if a store lacks inventory
going into a holiday weekend, the team may start doubting
the goal because they may feel as though they do not
have the best product to sell. However, you work with
what you have, and this requires patience and creativity.When
determining how team resources are used, I think that each
person in the team should have a say. As a team, it
is important to include everyone's perspective. It may also be
helpful to assign each individual a resource to be "in
charge of". This creates ownership and responsibility among
everyone in the team. Communication is key when keeping
the team on track. The most important valuable resource for
a team is the people in it. Without the people you will
not have different ideas, opinions of how things could be
done, and no communication. When it comes to projects that
require more than one individual it would be almost impossible
to complete with just one person. A good example is
carrying a heavy box, you could try to move it yourself,
but it would be almost impossible. Communication is a big
resource to have, without this your team most likely will
fail. I believe that the team as a whole should decide
how resources are used. By taking away possible resources
it could make the team stronger, or it could do the
opposite. Communicating with the team would keep the team
on track that way everyone knows what is needed, completed,
or questions that need to be answered. Holding meetings to
help with any questions or concerns, and talking about current
progress will help keep the team on track. My level could
use improvement, but I try to communicate questions or
concerns with my supervisor. In my opinion, the most valuable
resources in a team are the people. Without them you
really do not have a team at all. It is like the old
adage, “many hands make light work.” I can have several
team members and not a lot of time and get the job
done in less time than if there was only one person.
That is not even considering the fact that one person may
not have all the skills necessary to even do all that is
needed. Supplies are also valuable depending on what the
objective is, and timing is important as well.Where resources
are concerned, every team should have an appointed team
leader who has the ultimate say. It is important for one
person to be in charge of allocating resources, in some
cases this person could be voted on by other team members.
Nothing like fighting over resources to cause conflict in a
team. It is one of the major issues to have conflict
over, but resources are not always tangible.Project management
and planning skills… time management is one of the greatest
issues I have noticed people have the greatest issue with.
Setting goals and milestones through a project is really
important when it comes to meeting deadlines, which means
being organized. You must be dedicated to each task and
see it through to completion in a timely manner. I was
a warehouse manager and I had to deploy every tool at
my disposal to keep everything moving and in order. Now
I am a substitute teacher and still have to manage time
and resources, though on a much smaller scale. The most
valuable resources within a team to me would be creativity
and communication. I chose these two resources to be the
most valuable because without either of these I would not
have an effective nor productive team. I feel the team
should be responsible for determining how the teams resources'
are used, due to the fact they know what they need as
a team to be the most productive in the most efficient
way. When there are changes in availability to the resources
on hand it can affect the teams dynamic negatively but in
the end could possibly be more beneficial and them not
even know it. If there are changes in the resources on
hand this allows each team member to use their creativity
to find a appropriate solution using other resources. When
resources become limited yes it can be frightening to the
team, but like I said before it allows them to bring
their creativity to the table. If the team members focus on
the negatives like being without specific resources they will
not grow nor prosper. For a team to grow and prosper
they have to be able to turn around any negative situation
to a positive and keep the ball rolling. The most important
project management and planning skills needed to keep my
team going towards their goal is definitely maintaining strong
relationships. To have a successful team they need to be
able to build these strong relationships within themselves, this
will allow them to develop good communication skills and
become an effective asset to the team. Critical thinking and
communication are also important in teams now a days
because without being able to articulate what needs to be
done they would not be able to form an unbiased judgement
for evaluating situations. I would rate my level of proficiency
with these particular skills a 8 out of 10. I am still
learning the proper and appropriate ways to use these skills
among my team in my current job. I believe the most
valuable resource within a team is the intangible resource of
creativity and diversity. I chose those two because sometimes
experience isn't necessary to form great ideas, one just having
an understanding can piece together great plans. For example,
my best friend is an operations manager and he comes to
me all the time for advice. I have zero experience in
operations but i still help form ideas with him that he
generally uses. I feel when it comes to determining how
a team's resources are used, everyone should be able to
have a voice. Then gather the intel to see what is
viable to the success of the team. Changes to how much
of a resource a team can use could delay that team's
progress. The most important project management and planning
skills needed to keep a team on track are communication
and prioritizing. I tend to be pretty efficient in those areas,
that's why I am always encouraging those skills in other
people. In my own personal experience, the most important
resources in any team are knowledge and experience. I have
been in many different types of teams, and I have come
to realize, you can have all of the physical resources that
you could want, but if you do not have the knowledge
or experience in how to use these resources to your
benefit, you wont be very successful. It is for this that
I believe that those with the most experience and the right
qualifications should be in charge of the physical resources,
i.e. office managers, leads, etc.
In my office right now one of the most important physical
resources that we use on a daily basis is our PPE
(masks, gloves, wipes, etc.), when we run out of the
physical resources, it makes our job difficult because it could
result in rescheduling patients, limiting patient family members
from coming into appointments, and even causing issues for
our staff who might have forgotten their own PPE. However,
the real issues come from when we are limited on the
intangible resources, knowledge and experience. Right now in
my office, our insurance lead is on maternity leave, and
its affecting all of us in a negative way. She was the
only one who really knew the billing codes for the doctors
and how to use certain CPT codes to get auths. Since
she has left, we have been having many denials and its
definitely been a struggle. This is exactly what I mean
when I say experience is so important. Its important in
any team.Because I know that we are one vital staff
member short, I have been working with the leads in each
department. We try to meet up every Friday before we
leave. I think this is the best thing we have ever done.
When it comes to important project management and planning
skills, the number one skill is communication. Communicating
is vital especially when you know there is a situation. Our
team meetings consist of presenting positives but also bringing
forth concerns that the entire team can all work on together.
Honestly, the communication is what has helped our office
to work on these issues, we are getting a lot less
denials and we are able to see a lot more patients. In
my opinion, I would say our office is doing very well
when it comes to communicating. I believe time is the
most valuable resource of any team. No matter the objective
there is a finite amount of time to get things done and
wasted time can not be replaced. Of course, other valuable
resources included finances, technology, subject matter experts,
servers, test environments, etc. They all need to be managed
well. IN most cases trained project managers have the skills
to manage resources well. However, a person could also gain
those skills in other ways, like managing a household or
small business. If someone has leadership ability and good
organization skills they should manage resources even if they
don't have formal training. Resource availability impacts team
dynamics by clearly demonstrating priorities. Some aspect of a
team or project may appear equal but a strain on resources
will quickly identify what comes first. Documentation,
communication, scheduling and prioritizing or important project
management skills. I must admit, that I struggle with 3
out of the 4. I tend to communicate well verbally and
written, but documentation, including note taking is a real
challenge for me. There are plenty of valuable resources
within a team. When I would think of team resources in
the past I would usually only think of the tangible
resources. I would think of things like money, computers,
accessories. etc. While those resources are valuable in their
own right, I think some of the most valuable resources
are intangible. Those resources are things like knowledge and
creativity.
When determining who should be responsible for how (tangible)
resources are used you have to consider what type of team
it is and what the goals are. For example, in the team
I am apart of everyone has a role and we just so
happen to have a resource officer. Her role within the
team is to make sure we have everything we need to
complete our projects. If we have supplies that need to
be ordered, invoices that need to be paid, etc., we go
to her and it is her job to make sure it gets done.
This may not be possible for every team, so I think it
is important to decide this in the forming stage of creating
teams, so the members know who is responsible for what
and who they need to go to for help.
I believe the availability of resources, or lack thereof, can
definitely can the dynamics of a team. If one member
feels someone is getting more resources or help, it can
cause tension or feelings of animosity, which is why resource
management is so important.
Some of the most important project management skills needed
to keep a team on track include things like: time
management, communication, collaboration, and resource management,
to name a few. If I had to rate my level of
proficiency with these skills using a scale of 1 through
10 I would say 7. I feel confident in my abilities but
could always improve.
To me the most valuable resource within a team are your
team members. Next to that would have to be the
communication between the team members. Without communication
then there is no team. I feel that determining how resources
are used should be the responsibility of every member of
the team. Then at that rate everyone knows what is going
on within the team. Then all team members can be on
the same page. One change that could affect the dynamic
of the team would be if a member did not show up
for work or decided not to complete their portion of the
project. That is where the communication comes in to play
in the team. If the communication breaks down and the
team does not know that another team member is not
doing their job, then they will not know that they have
to pickup the slack. Keeping the communication within the
team is key to keep the team on track to completing
their goals. I have great communication skills therefore I
would excel at keeping the communication within my team
up. I believe the most valuable resources within a team
are the team members themselves and the communication within
said team. The depth each team member can bring to the
table is very valuable. Then having the ability to communicate
becomes key for the team use their own resources.
Determining how team resources are used should be determined
by the team as a whole under the direction and guidance
of the team leader. I believe this responsibility ultimately
falls under the team as a whole.
Any changes made to to availability of the team can be
detrimental to the team. It is no different than a link
in a chain failing. The chain becomes as strong as its
weakest link.
Having the ability to collaborate effectively within your team,
the ability to communicate, and having a positive attitude is
the most important project management and planning skills
needed to keep a team on track toward its goals. I
would rate my level of proficiency with these skills at
a7.5-8.0. I have a lot of management experience but I
also know there is always room for improvement. I think
the most valuable resources with in a team I would have
to say communication. I think the leader of the team
should be responsible for determining how team resources are
used. Changes to the availability of resources affect team
dynamics by making the team struggle since not all the
recourses are availability may not be the ones we need.
The most important project management and planning skills
needed to keep a team on track towards its goals would
have to have to be to set a timeline to have the
project done by. I would rate my level of proficiency with
these skills would be a five out of ten. In my opinion,
the most valuable resources within a team are communication
and leadership. With the right leader who knows how to
communicate, I have witnessed the most questionable teams
succeed. In the logistics industry you constantly have to work
as a team to achieve the best results. Overall, the team-
leader should have the final determination of how team
resources are utilized. A good leader will listen to their
team and consider all perspectives when making decisions. It
is a necessity to consider all input shared and utilize
experience they have. Changes would depend on whether the
resources became less than what was needed or more than
they need. If resources available are not enough, team members
could begin to feel the stress, helplessness, or unmotivated
from not getting what they need to be successful.I would
say communication and problem solving are the most important
skills to have when planning a project. In my last position
my job was project managing and leading numerous teams
to success. I would say I am highly proficient at these
skills. I listen, make sound decisions, and communicate well
with my teams. The most valuable resources within a team
is to be sure you have all the supplies needed to
effectively do your task, have good leadership to be able
to talk with about any frustrating or things they like, and
the team members themselves. I feel that every team member
should be responsible for determining how team resources are
used. After all it is called a team for a reason. Changes
to the availability of resources can affect team dynamics by
the lack of resources it could cause for things to be
late due to not having what is needed to finish the
task also with having tasks not turned in on time can
cause failure in the team. The most important project
management and planning skills needed to keep a team on
track towards its goals is to prioritize tasks, come up with
a checklist with each task, effective communication, and critical
thinking. How I would rate my level of proficiency with
these skills would be proficient. I am aware of what these
skills and can use them but would not say I was an
expert. I believe that the most valuable resources within the
team are the team members themselves. The reason being is
because each team member is different and unique in their
own ways and that can add valuable assets to being a
team. Communication is the most important resource that needs
to utilized in a team because it will help to bring the
team to one accord. As far as determining who is
responsible for utilizing these resources I believe that each
team member can be held accountable because even though
we are a team we each have our own personalities and
traits that can help us understand how to function as a
team. With that being said, I believe that with this many
personalities and traits there should be a person in charge
of utilizing them and making sure that each resource can
be used for the good of the team. The most important
management skills needed to keep the team on track are
effective communication and critical thinking. Effective communication
is essential to help the team function because it can help
set the tone and directions to what needed to achieve as
a team. Critical thinking is an added skill because in order
to communicate well with another team member you have to
think about how and when to communicate effectively. I
believe the most valuable resource that is within a team
is the minds of the team members and effective communication.
Learning to brainstorm within a team is a really good way
of seeing things someone else might not have seen. Also,
being able to effectively communicate will help and cause
less confusion or misunderstandings within the team. The
availability of resources can change team dynamics due to
someone not pulling their weight of the team, mismanaging,
or unforeseen circumstances. I believe everyone should be able
to have an input on how resources are being used, however,
I do believe there should be someone responsible who oversees
how resources are coming in and how they are being
used. The most important management and planning skills would
definitely be communication. Effective communication within a team
can really help keep everyone on the same page and
prevent unnecessary mishaps. I am pretty good with
communication, however, I do have moments where I just
don't like to talk, so I do not voice my opinion as
often as I should. I am learning to use my voice as
well as be more adaptable to changes. In my opinion I
believe the most valuable resource within a team are the
team members, communication, and trust. I think either the
leader or who organized the team should be responsible for
how resource are used within a team as well as the
team members too. When the avaibalitily of resources change
it can have a impact on the team by causing the team
to fall short of their goal. The most important project
managing and planning skills needed to to keep a team
on track is communication as well. I feel like communication
is such a strong factor when it comes to being a part
of a team because of you don’t communicate everyone will
be on different pages and it can take much longer to
achieve the goal as a team. My level of proficiency with
these skills I would say are in the middle. I feel like
I don’t always communicate the point I am trying to make
or voice my opinion at times. I definitely feel like I
can work on my communication skills a little more to be
a great asset to teams I am apart of in the future.
I initially wanted to state that communication is the most
valuable resource. After further thought i have decided that
along with communication, development and advancement are also
valuable resources. I feel these all go hand in hand.
Communicating with your team and understanding what it is
they need in a company. Understanding what it is that
drive them! I would say that advancement will always drive
a team. The fact that you are working towards something
bigger and greater than you is a push! Developing a team
that already has so much potential would most likely lead
to a great payoff in the end.I feel as if the entire
unit should be responsible for determining how to use the
resources, to an extent! They don't ultimately have to have
the final decision, but their voice should definitely be heard.
Altering or changing certain resources can change the dynamic
in a positive or a negative way. Good thing is you can
tweak it as you go.If your team is working on a project
i think it is key to be realistic on the time you
have. Don't bite off more than you can chew. Give out
tasks logically. If Karen is a guru at a specific task,
make sure she is given that task. Keep every one in
mind at all times. Check in on the tasks at hand and
keep moving forward toward the desired goal. My skills in
this are always to be resilient and don't expect perfection.
Learn from my past mistakes and continue to work toward
the desired goal! I believe each and every day will be
different, so being able to adapt and use these resources
when necessary is a confidence builder for me. I believe
the most valuable resources within a team is the team
members. Each member has a responsibility that brings function
and efficiency to the team. They may also have experience
different from yours and other members that can be utilized
to reach a goal and/or objective. Responsibility of resources
used within the team should be organized by a project
manager or resource manager, which is different than a
coordinator. Lack of properly managing these recourses can
cause productivity, time, money and valuable experience. Therefore,
resource/team manager should be confident and clearly state
what their responsibilities are. They should be able to clearly
communicate in a timely manner so that everyone is on
board with time sensitive materials. Most importantly, the manager
should make sure that everyone is clear on the objective
or goal of the project. People who see great leadership
tend to hold their part in the group and complete their
tasks. They also continue to work if they are being held
accountable for their part of the work. I personally am
extremely proficient in these skills because of the importance
of my job. Although developing these skills took time to
develop, I continue to listen to team members and improve.
What I find to be the most valuable sources within a
team is communication and effective work ethic. Reason being
you want to be able to understand the goals and perform
them effectively. Conversations between coworkers should be able
to be had and work performance together to follow.In most
teams you have a secretary or at least someone that keeps
the books. I would make implementing the resources for the
team apart of that person’s role. It seems more beneficial
seeing how that person already has all the information
documented. The availability of resources affect team dynamics
when deadlines are to be met but its hard if you have
workers calling off work or just simply didn’t have their
part of the team project completed at the deadline. Important
project management and planning skills needed to keep a
team on track towards its goal would be leadership,
communication, and risk management to name a few. I would
rate my proficiency level of leadership a 10 out of 10.
I would rate my proficiency level of communication 10 out
of 10. I would rate my proficiency in risk management to
be 6 out of 10. The most valuable resources are each
team member: knowledge, skill, determination, willingness to learn,
attitude. These resources make a team member very valuable
to the team dynamics and morale, and these make getting
to the team goal faster and more efficient. I think the
team leader should be responsible to assign resources that
should be used and where, after team collaboration. I think
the ability to do this job well is what makes someone
a successful team leader. In doing so the team leader also
makes the team successful. Changes to the availability of
resources both more or less can affect the team in multiple
ways such as Productivity, and efficiency, of both the
individuals and the team as a whole. This is why everyone
on the team needs to try to be able to adapt to
change quickly. Team collaboration, individual compromise,
communication, and problem-solving skills are very important to
keep a team on track towards the goal. I believe I am
pretty proficient in these skills, I believe they are some
of my greatest qualities. I think that the most valuable
resource within team is encouragement. We are all human
and I believe that we all fall short sometimes when it
comes to completing certain task, rather it's by yourself or
being involved in a team. Encouragement goes a long way.
Being part of a team and being a good teammate requires
pushing your team mates, encouraging them when they make
a mistake and always being there for them. In every team
there is one person who takes the lead and takes
responsibility of their team. I think the most well rounded
persons should be the person to decide how the team's
resources are used. Changes in the availability of resources
can change a team's dynamic depending on the certain resource
that is limited. Being in a team, resources should always
be be present and not limited. Lack of resources can
change the way the team functions and also change the
relationship between certain team members. The most important
planning skills to keep a team on track is to always
set a reasonable goal. Within a team.. every person should
know their weaknesses and strengthens, as well as their mates.
Never set a goal that seems unreasonable or too hard to
reach within the team that you have created. Find what
works best within your team. Communication and a positive
attitude is a huge step when working in a group. I rate
myself a 10. I always try to have a clear head and
positive attitude where ever I go. The most valuable resources
within a team are the team-mates, the people that the team
is made of. I feel it is best to discuss resources with
everyone on the team. Get the team involved taking inventory,
like the teacher in the video did with her family when
Covid lockdown started. She said her family and household
took inventory of what they had, and they talked about
their needs.I would want to communicate clearly and concisely,
and take a consensus with my team about how we manage
resources. It is possible there are pre-existing protocol guidelines
that are traditionally used within a particular team. There
could be past inventories and other resources that you could
use as guidelines for needs and how-to's. It is also possible
that there could be an individual who is delegated to the
task of managing resources.Changes to resource availability can
affect team dynamics in various ways. If you suddenly have
more resources, that would be much different than If you
suddenly have fewer resources. Team dynamics could change in
different ways, depending on which resource we have in
mind. Whether you have more or fewer resources, and
regardless of the type of resource, the changes will certainly
include more clear communication and collaboration .Let's say
you are serving lunch with a food service team and you
have only three pens, but you have four servers. One
server will need to go buy or borrow more pens, or
two servers will need to figure out how to share one
pen. In this case, that is my opinion. I have not
discussed the pen deficiency with the rest of the team yet.
Communicating with the team and a general consensus of the
plan, with majority approval, would be my next step. (e.g..
"What do you guys think? Do we need to get more
pens?" "No, we can text the cooks the orders with our
smartphones.").The most important project management and planning
skills needed to keep a team on track toward its goals
are clear and concise communication, positive attitude, and
willingness to collaborate. I rate my level of proficiency with
these skills a 7.5 on a scale of 1-10.
