Factors Which Contribute to an Effective Team

Business should work in teams. If they work in teams they can get more

ideas shared. If work in teams they can distribute work between

themselves. Members can motivate each other’s in doing their work.

The effective the team is the successful it can be. The following

factors have many benefits that a business must be aware of before the

team can be effective:

Interaction of the team- the advantages of good interaction is that

members will work together as a team. This means that members will

know what to do in the business and run it efficiently.

· Communication within the team- once the group knows what they are

doing; communication between them will be frequent. The advantages of

communication are members will know what they are doing. They will

know exactly what is going on and ask for any problem that occurs.

Communication makes the business run more efficiently and talks about

problems.

The disadvantages of communication are employees won’t know what they

are doing. They won’t be motivated as others.

In relation to our business we didn’t have good communication in the

team. Most of the members weren’t motivated and didn’t know what they

were doing. An example was when we had meetings to discuss about the

business. There was communication as the members opted the problems

that occurred in our business. Our business was lacking communication,

as there wasn’t much work to do. Some of the members didn’t know their

roles and responsibilities. Lacking of communication meant that fewer

members knew that we were in loss. The market researchers didn’t find

out that our posters were taken out. Our business had competitors,

which fewer knew and didn’t tell the team leaders.

· Have the responsibility to meet targets- everyone is given

responsibility to do his or her jobs. They are given deadlines to

meet the targets. If they don’t meet their targets then the business

fails.

The advantages of responsibilities are that if members are given more

responsibility they feel they are more involved in the business. The

manager might not give more work to do.

The disadvantages of responsibilities are that if they don’t do their

work they may let their business down. They will also not achieve

their objectives.

SKILLS OF THE SENDER AND OF THE RECEIVER.

The ability of the sender to explain a message and the receiver to

understand it are important in communication.

If an order must be sent out by a certain date , but the sender simply

asks for as soon as possible, communication would not have been

effective.

If the receiver does not understand what stocks to take the order

from, incorrect goods may be sent due to lack of effective

communication.

Emails: messages can be received rapid and cheap. It is used

internally and externally. More than one mail can be sent. Mail can be

sent to more than one recipient. It can cuts costs such as envelops,

stamps. File or pictures can be attached to the mail. Sainsbury can

use this form to customers. They can also email their customers about

special offers on product. They can email their financial records to

suppliers and etc.

Fax machines- this is when information is typed into the fax machine
