1. Write the names of two people you consider to be effective leaders. Make a bulleted list of at least four of the characteristics these individuals exhibit that you think make them effective leaders. The leader can be from any background (management, sports, political, and inspirational)
2. Write a team contract to maximize the effectiveness of the group if you were a new product development team. Be sure to address how the team will handle disagreements, how you will make decisions, and how the team will ensure that all team members' ideas are shared. Think about the different aspects of team effectiveness and ways of promoting team effectiveness as you draft the contract. Beginning with a team member that does not complete his/her fair share of the assignment, or is late/misses deadlines, how should the remaining team members' address this situation?
