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
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.
