Dr. Erica Redmond 1 EVALUATE TEAM MEMBER EFFECTIVENESS 2 Evaluate Team Member Effectiveness

 

Team member effectiveness is important for the group to have solid group dynamics.

 

These peer evaluations give the group opportunity assess the performance of each team member.

 

According to Mayhew (n.d.), "Employees usually are honest about their assessment of team

 

member performance, especially as it relates to interpersonal relationships with other team

 

members" (para. Team Member Performance Evaluation Techniques). The evaluation assessment

 

results will allow group members to view and give feedback on each of other results to better

 

achieve higher group dynamics.

 

Do you agree with your results?

 

After taking the assessment, I first did not agree with my results, because I wasn't clear

 

about the meaning of each category. After reading Chapter 8 on how to boost effectiveness by

 

examining team member strengths, sharing personal expectations, setting goals that are common,

 

commitment and agreeing on the process of communication, I have a better understanding of my

 

scores in each category and agree with the results. The assessment results helped put some

 

things into perspective as to what I need to change to enhance more self-awareness to be an

 

effective team member and be productive as a leader.

 

Based on your self-assessment, what do you see as your strengths and weaknesses

 

regarding working on a team?

 

Base on the scores I received on my self-assessment:

 

Contributing to the Team's Work

 

Score: 3.2 pts.

 

Interacting with Teammates EVALUATE TEAM MEMBER EFFECTIVENESS 3 Score: 2.67 pts.

 

Keeping the Team on Track

 

Score: 2.8 pts.

 

Expecting Quality

 

Score: 5 pts.

 

Having Relevant Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities (KSAs)

 

Score: 4.5 pts.

 

These results determine that I need to work on all areas of team effectiveness. Although I

 

have received a higher score for expecting quality and having relevant Knowledge, Skills and

 

Abilities (KSAs) there is always room for improvement in those areas. My weaknesses in areas

 

of contributing to team's work, interacting with team members and keeping the team on track can

 

be change by becoming an initiator, orienteer, energizer, standard setter and commentator. These

 

task and maintenance role can help me keep the group headed toward their mutual goals, prods

 

team members to move along to accomplish more, and record and comment more on group

 

progress and dynamics. My strength in expecting quality and having relevant KSAs I received

 

higher scores, but can still enhance in these areas by being more encouraging and accepting and

 

praising team members, harmonizing conflict by reconciliation and humor, and becoming a

 

gatekeeper by encouraging team members to continue to participate. Therefore, because of my

 

weaknesses from my self-assessment, I was able to interact with my team this week much more

 

than in the previous weeks. EVALUATE TEAM MEMBER EFFECTIVENESS 4 Have you ever engaged in social loafing while on a team? Why or why not?

 

To a certain degree I may have been guilty of social loafing while on my team. I am

 

guilty of being lazy or waiting to see if another team member is going to take the initiative before

 

I provide my input of ideas and perspectives. However, I have learned the importances of

 

building trust amongst your teammates. Your commitment is very crucial to the team completing

 

and achieving your goals. Therefore, my participation is very important for the strength of the

 

group that shows good group dynamics.

 

How does working effectively on a team give you an advantage in the workplace?

 

Mattson (2015) states, "Two heads are better than one." Mattson believes that teamwork

 

benefits you in the workplace in six ways:

 

1) Fostering creativity and learning

 

2) Blends complementary strengths

 

3) Build Trust

 

4) Resolving conflict skills

 

5) Promote a wider sense of ownership, and

 

6) Encourage healthy risk-taking.

 

By combining each team member perspectives, together we can create more effective

 

results. Working together promotes trust and strong relationships, and a sense of safety with

 

team members to emerge ideas. When a team member has conflicts, they can resolve them

 

without involving management. It can lead to higher level jobs and fulfillment within yourself

 

and in the company. EVALUATE TEAM MEMBER EFFECTIVENESS 5 How do groups normally develop?

 

According to Chapter 8, group's development process often evolves along five defined

 

steps: forming, storming, and norming, performing and adjourning. By learning these steps it

 

can help you understand group dynamics and be more effective in groups.

 

How does the effectiveness of the team members influence the group's development

 

process?

 

The keys to team effectiveness are based upon the leadership, participation, aligned

 

purpose, future focused and creativity according to Chapter 8. The 3 Cs' (Charters and strategies,

 

Composition and Capacity) are needed to for the development process. The results of these

 

influences come from the rewards, competition and collaboration that plays an important role in

 

the development of effectiveness of the team. Without the knowledge of the 3 Cs,' the team will

 

not succeed.

 

Conclusion

 

In conclusion, I want to be more effective in the role that I play in my group. I have

 

learned ways to work on my weaknesses through the self-assessment and is now eager to take the

 

initiative to interact more with my team. Because I have committed myself to my team, I will

 

not exhibit traits of social loafing and learn from my scores what it take to have good group

 

dynamics and express them throughout my career as well as within my group. EVALUATE TEAM MEMBER EFFECTIVENESS 6 Reference
