Please read the attached HBR case study 'Should This Team Be Saved',
1)Describe Peter's professional background and experience, and how he came to Vigor Skin Care. What was his goal when he accepted his leadership role at Vigor? Did Peter have a strategy to turn around the product line sales to be more successful - if so, what was it? How did Peter proceed with selecting team members to help him with his goal - did he have a plan?
2)What did Sandy propose to contribute to the team's effort? What did josh propose to contribute to the team's effort? Collectively, how did their personal styles and teamwork perspectives enable Peter to move forward with the goal?
3)Describe the balance of social/relationship-building behaviors and task behaviors demonstrated by the three team members. Is this a good balance for team success - why or why not? How did the way in which the team worked together benefit each of them individually?
4) What manufacturing issues did Peter encounter as the Vigor Skin Care product line was increasing in success and sales? What was going on with his team at this point - what were Josh and Sandy's behaviors, and how did this impact Peter's objectives at this point? Should Peter have kept the team together, and if so what would be your recommendations for proceeding?
