Teamwork Tips

I am taking Business Psychology and our most recent chapter was on Business Teams and Teamwork. This obviously got me thinking about our creative class and our group projects. According to what I learned in class there are five principles of teamwork, so I am sharing them with you all as we crack down before our final presentations next week.

1) Teamwork implies that all members provide and accept feedback from one another.
2) Teamwork implies the willingness, preparedness and proclivity to back fellow members up during operations.
3) Teamwork involves group members collectively viewing themselves as a group whose success depends on their interaction.
4) Teamwork means fostering team interdependence (every member dependent to carry out teams mission)
5) Team leadership is very important and makes a difference with respect to the team performance.

Hopefully these will remind you to work cohesively with your group; we are all working towards a common goal! Good luck!
