TEAMWORK, COLLABORATION, AND CONFLICT RESOLUTION

At some point, all of us will be called upon to work in a team. This week, we will explore what differentiates teams from groups, what defines an effective team, and what skills are needed to effectively work in a team.

For this week’s discussion, consider a situation in which you had to work with others.

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: 

• Briefly share a situation in which you had to work with others.
• What were the most important factors that influence how well your team worked together?
• Do you consider the team in your example effective? Why or why not? How did the location of your team members influence its effectiveness?
• What concepts from this week’s learning activities do feel apply to the team you were in?
