Problem:
You will be a member of the newly-formed project staff team. This team will need to realize process gains within its first three months. You want to help, not hinder, the team's progress, so you decide to do some research upfront. You bring up your challenge at your managerial networking meeting. You pose the following questions to the group.
What kind of work group is the project staff team - task force, command group, or friendship group?
What characteristics of the team are likely to contribute to the goal of process gains within the next three months?
What are some sources of potential process losses?
You don't just listen, you also participate. Go to the Small Group Discussion Board and post your ideas on each of these questions. Respond to at least one other posting.
