ANSWERS TO COME ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Teams offer synergy and other benefits to organizations and their members Teams often suffer from common performance problems Organizations are networks of formal teams and informal groups Organizations use committees, task forces, and cross-functional teams Virtual teams are increasingly common in organizations Self-managing teams are a form of job enrichment for groups We are all part of teams every day, and it’s time to recognize a basic fact: Teams are hard work, but they are mostly worth it The beauty of teams is accomplishing something far greater than what’s possible for an individual alone But even though two heads can be better than one, the key word is “can.” Have you ever heard someone say, “Too many cooks spoil the broth” or “A camel is an elephant put together by a committee”? There are good reasons why such sayings are well used Let’s start this discussion realistically On one level there seems little to debate Groups and teams have a lot to offer organizations But at another level you have to sometimes wonder if the extra effort is really worth it Sometimes teams can be more pain than gain There’s a lot to learn about them, their roles in organizations, and how we participate in and help lead them for real performance gains.1 ||| A team is a collection of people who regularly interact to pursue common goals Teamwork is the process of people actively working together to accomplish common goals Synergy is the creation of a whole greater than the sum of its individual parts Teams offer synergy and other benefits to organizations and their members A team is a small group of people with complementary skills who work together to accomplish shared goals while holding each other mutually accountable for performance results.2 Teams are essential to organizations of all types and sizes Many tasks are well beyond the capabilities of individuals alone.3 And in this sense, teamwork, people actually working together to accomplish a shared goal, is a major performance asset.4 The term synergy means the creation of a whole that exceeds the sum of its parts When teams perform well, it’s because of synergy that pools many diverse talents and efforts to create extraordinary results Check synergy and team success in the NBA Scholars find that both good and bad basketball teams win more the longer the players have been together Why? A “teamwork effect” creates wins because players know one another’s moves and playing tendencies Check synergy and team success in the hospital operating room.  Scholars notice the same heart surgeons have lower death rates for similar procedures performed in hospitals where the surgeons did more Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com Teams and Teamwork ■ Chapter 14 339 operations Why?

The possibilities include a variety of actions to make individual contributions more visible—rewarding individuals for their How to Handle Social Loafing contributions, making task assignments more interesting, and keeping group size small so that free-riders • Reward individuals for contributions are more noticeable This makes the loafers more sus• Make individuals visible by keeping team size ceptible to pressures from peers and to critical leader small evaluations And if you’ve ever considered free-riding • Encourage peer pressure to perform as a team member, think again You may get away with • Make task assignments more interesting it in the short term, but your reputation will suffer, and sooner or later it will be “payback” time Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com 340 EXPLORING MANAGEMENT Quiet Noise Creative/ Getty Images { “I’LL BE ACTIVE IN DISCUSSIONS, BUT I CAN’T BE A LEADER OR VOLUNTEER FOR ANY EXTRA WORK.” Ethics Check ■ Danger! Social Loafing May Be Closer Than You Think Psychology study: A German researcher asks people to pull on a rope as hard as they can First, individuals pull alone Second, they pull as part of a group Results show people pull harder when working alone than when working as part of a team Such social loafing is the tendency to reduce effort when working in groups Faculty office: A student wants to speak with the instructor about his team’s performance on the last group project There were four members, but two did almost all the work The two loafers largely disappeared, showing up only at the last minute to be part of the formal presentation His point is that the team was disadvantaged because the two free-riders caused a loss of performance capacity Telephone call from the boss: “John, I really need you to serve on this committee Will you it? Let me know tomorrow.” In thinking about this, I ponder: I’m overloaded, but I ||| A formal team is officially recognized and supported by the organization don’t want to turn down the boss I’ll accept but let the committee members know about my situation I’ll be active in discussions and try to offer viewpoints and perspectives that are helpful However, I’ll let them know up front that I can’t be a leader or volunteer for any extra work YOU DECIDE Whether you call it social loafing, free-riding, or just plain old slacking off, the issue is the same What right some people have to sit back in team situations and let other people all or most of the work? Is this ethical? Does everyone in a group have an ethical obligation to his or her fair share of the work? Does the fact that John is going to be honest with the other committee members make any difference? Won’t he still be a loafer that gets credit with the boss for serving on the committee? Would it be more ethical for him to decline the boss’s request? Organizations are networks of formal teams and informal groups A formal team is officially designated for a specific organizational purpose You’ll find such teams described by different labels on organization charts—examples are departments (e.g., market research department), work units (e.g., audit unit), teams (e.g., customer service team), or divisions (e.g., office products division) Formal teams are headed by supervisors, managers, department heads, team leaders, and the like It is common, in fact, to describe organizations as interlocking networks of teams in which managers and leaders play “linking pin” roles.9 This means that they serve both as head of one work team and as a regular member in the next-higher-level one It’s also important to recognize, as shown here, that managers play more than one role in groups and teams In addition to serving as the supervisor or team leader, they also act as network facilitators, helpful participants, and external coaches Supervisor Network facilitator Helpful participant External coach Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com © Leontura/iStockphoto Teams and Teamwork ■ { Chapter 14 341 WORKERS AROUND THE WORLD SAY MOST MEETINGS ARE “INEFFECTIVE.” Facts to Consider ■ Unproductive Meetings Are Major Time Wasters A survey of some 38,000 workers around the world links low productivity with bad meetings, poor communication, and unclear goals • 69% of meetings attended are considered ineffective • 32% of workers complain about team communication • 31% complain about unclear objectives and priorities YOUR THOUGHTS? Do these data match your experiences with team meetings? Given the common complaints about meetings, what can a team leader to improve them? Think about the recent meetings you have attended In what ways were the best meetings different from the worst ones? Did your behavior play a significant role in both these cases? The informal structure of an organization also consists of informal groups They emerge from natural or spontaneous relationships and offer members opportunities for social satisfactions as well as contacts for getting work done Some are interest groups, whose members pursue a common cause, such as a women’s career network Some are friendship groups that develop for a wide variety of personal reasons, including shared hobbies and other nonwork interests Others are support groups in which members basically help one another out in work and personal affairs ||| An informal group is unofficial and emerges from relationships and shared interests among members Organizations use committees, task forces, and cross-functional teams Among the formal teams and groups in organizations, a committee brings together people outside their daily job assignments to work in a small team for a specific purpose.10 A designated head or chairperson typically leads the committee and is held accountable for the task agenda Organizations, for example, often have committees dealing with issues like diversity, quality, and compensation.11 Project teams or task forces put people together to work on common problems, but on a temporary rather than a continuing basis Project teams, for example, might be formed to develop a new product or service, redesign workflows, or provide specialized consulting for a client.12 A task force might be formed to address employee retention problems or come up with ideas for improving work schedules.13 The cross-functional team brings together members from different functional units.14 They are supposed to work together on specific problems or tasks, sharing information and exploring new ideas They are expected to help knock down the “functional chimneys” or “walls” that otherwise separate departments and people in the organization For example, Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel says that his firm uses cross-functional teams from “merchandising, marketing, design, A committee is designated to work on a special task on a continuing basis A project team or task force is convened for a specific purpose and disbands after completing its task A cross-functional team operates with members who come from different functional units of an organization Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com 342 An employee involvement team meets on a regular basis to help achieve continuous improvement A quality circle is a team of employees who meet periodically to discuss ways of improving work quality EXPLORING MANAGEMENT communications, presentation, supply chain and stores” to create and bring to customers new limited edition fashions.15 Some organizations also use employee involvement teams These groups of workers meet on a regular basis with the goal of using their expertise and experience for continuous improvement The quality circle, for example, is a team that meets regularly to discuss and plan specific ways to improve work quality.16 ||| Members of a virtual team work together and solve problems through computer-based interactions Virtual teams are increasingly common in organizations A vice president for human resources at Marriott once called electronic meetings “the quietest, least stressful, most productive meetings you’ve ever had.”17 She  was  talking about a type of group that is increasingly common in today’s organizations—the virtual team.18 Sometimes called a distributed team, its members work together and solve problems through computer-mediated rather than face-to-face interactions The constant emergence of new technologies is making virtual collaboration both easier and more common At home it may be Skype or Facebook; at the office it’s likely to be any number of in-house or other Web-based meeting resources.19 As you probably realize already from working in college study teams, virtual teamwork has many advantages It allows teamwork by people who may be located at great distances from one another, offering cost and time efficiencies It makes it easy to widely share lots of information, keep records of team activities, and maintain databases And, virtual teamwork can help reduce interpersonal problems that might otherwise occur when team members are dealing face-toface with controversial issues.20 { VIRTUAL TEAMS NEED THE RIGHT MEMBERS, GOALS, FEEDBACK, AND TECHNOLOGY Tips to Remember ■ Steps to Successful Virtual Teams • Select team members high in initiative and capable of self-starting • Select members who will join and engage the team with positive attitudes • Select members known for working hard to meet team goals • Begin with social messaging that allows members to exchange information about one another to personalize the process • Assign clear goals and roles so that members can focus while working alone and also know what others are doing • Gather regular feedback from members about how they think the team is doing and how it might better • Provide regular feedback to team members about team accomplishments • Make sure the team has the best virtual meeting technology Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com Teams and Teamwork ■ 343 Chapter 14 Are there any downsides to virtual teams? Yes, for sure, and often they’re the same as in other groups.21 Social loafing can still occur, goals may be unclear, meeting requests may be too frequent Members of virtual teams can also have difficulties establishing good working relationships The lack of face-to-face interaction limits the role of emotions and nonverbal cues in the communication and may depersonalize member relations.22 Even with these potential problems, however, teams working in virtual space rather than face-to-face are proving their performance potential.23 In fact, they’re becoming a way of organizational life ||| Self-managing teams are a form of job enrichment for groups In a growing number of organizations, traditional work units of supervisors and subordinates are being replaced with self-managing teams Sometimes called autonomous work groups, these are teams whose members have been given collective authority to make many decisions about how they work, ones previously made by higher-level managers.24 The expected advantages include better performance, decreased costs, and higher morale As shown in Figure 14.1, the “self-management” responsibilities of selfmanaging teams include planning and scheduling work, training members in various tasks, distributing tasks, meeting performance goals, ensuring high quality, and solving day-to-day operating problems In some settings the team’s authority may even extend to “hiring” and “firing” its members when necessary A key feature is multitasking, in which team members each have the skills to perform several different jobs Top manager Team management Planning and scheduling work Assignment of work tasks Training members Performance evaluation Quality control Middle manager Top manager Middle manager Supervisor Supervisor Members of a self-managing team have the authority to make decisions about how they share and complete their work done by Team Team leader Work unit Self-managing team Traditional Structure New Structure FIGURE 14.1 What Are the Management Implications of Self-Managing Teams? Members of self-managing teams make decisions together on team membership, task plans and job assignments, training and performance evaluations, and quality control Because they essentially manage themselves in these ways, they no longer need a traditional supervisor or department head Instead, the team leader performs this role with the support of team members The team leader and team as a whole report to the next higher level of management and are held accountable for performance results Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com 344 EXPLORING MANAGEMENT STUDY Why Is It Important to Understand GUIDE Teams and Teamwork? Takeaway 14.1 Rapid Review Terms to Define Committee Cross-functional team Employee involvement team Formal team Informal group Project team • A team consists of people with complementary skills working together for shared goals and holding one another accountable for performance • Teams benefit organizations by providing for synergy that allows the accomplishment of tasks that are beyond individual capabilities alone • Social loafing and other problems can limit the performance of teams • Organizations use a variety of formal teams in the form of committees, task forces, project teams, cross-functional teams, and virtual teams • Self-managing teams allow team members to perform many tasks previously done by supervisors Quality circle Questions for Discussion Self-managing team Do committees and task forces work better when they are given short deadlines? Are there some things that should be done only by face-to-face teams, not virtual ones? Why people in teams often tolerate social loafers?

It’s time for the initial meeting of the task force that you have been assigned to lead This is a big opportunity for you because it’s the first time your boss has given you this level of responsibility There are seven members of the team, all of whom are your peers and co-workers—no direct reports The task is to develop a proposal for increased use of flexible work schedules and telecommuting in the organization What will your agenda be for the first meeting, and what opening statement will you make? Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com Teams and Teamwork ■ Chapter 14 345 Takeaway 14.2 What Are the Building Blocks of Successful Teamwork? ANSWERS TO COME ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Teams need the right members for the tasks to be accomplished Teams need the right setting and size to be effective Teams need the right processes to be effective Teams move through different stages of development Team performance is affected by norms and cohesiveness Team performance is affected by task and maintenance roles Team performance is affected by communication networks After talking about the types of teams in organizations, it’s time to focus on the teamwork that can make them successful.25 Look at Figure 14.2 It diagrams a team as an open system that, like the organization itself, transforms a variety of inputs into outputs.26 It also shows that an effective team should be accomplishing three output goals—task performance, member satisfaction, and team viability.27 The first outcome of an effective team is high task performance When you are on a team, ask: Did we accomplish our tasks and meet expectations? The second Inputs Membership composition Abilities Values Personalities Diversity Nature of task Clarity Complexity Organizational setting Resources Technology Structures Rewards Information Throughputs Outputs Team process Team effectiveness The way members work together to transform inputs into outputs • Norms • Cohesion • Roles • Communication • Decision making • Conflict Accomplishment of desired outcomes • Task performance • Member satisfaction • Team viability Team size Number of members Even-odd number Feedback FIGURE 14.2 What Are the Foundations of Team Effectiveness? An effective team achieves high levels of task performance and member satisfaction and remains viable for the future The foundations of effectiveness begin with inputs— things such as membership composition, nature of the task, resources and support in the organizational setting, and team size The foundations of effectiveness further rest with team process—how well the members utilize their talents and other inputs to create the desired outputs Key process factors on any team include the stages of development, norms and cohesion, task and maintenance activities, communication, and decision making An effective team achieves high levels of task performance, membership satisfaction, and future viability Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com 346 EXPLORING MANAGEMENT outcome of an effective team is member satisfaction Ask: Are we individually and collectively pleased with our participation in the process? The third outcome of an effective team is viability for future action Ask: Can this team be successful again in the future?28 You might hear an effective team described as one that has “the right players in the right seats on the same bus, headed in the same direction.”29 The open-systems model in Figure 14.2 shows this thinking A team’s effectiveness is influenced by inputs— getting the right players and putting them in the right seats, and by process—making sure everyone knows they’re on the same bus and headed in the same direction You can remember the implications with this team effectiveness equation Team Effectiveness ϭ Quality of Inputs ϩ (Process Gains Ϫ Process Losses) ||| Team diversity is the mix of skills, experiences, backgrounds, and personalities of team members Homogeneous teams have members with similar personal characteristics Teams need the right members for the tasks to be accomplished The foundations for team effectiveness are set when a team is formed The better or worse the inputs, you might say, the more or less likely are good teamwork and performance success.30 And when it comes to optimizing inputs for team success, the starting point is membership composition In other words, just who should you select as team members? Ability counts in team membership You want talent available to accomplish the task at hand In an ideal world, managers carefully form teams by choosing team members whose talents and interests fit well with the job to be done If you were in charge of a new team, wouldn’t you want to start this way? The talents needed for a team to accomplish relatively simple tasks are easy to identify It’s harder to identify those needed for more complex tasks And because complex tasks require more information exchange and intense interaction among team members, they put more pressure on teamwork Think complexity the next time you fly And check out the ground crews You should notice some similarities between them and teams handling pit stops for NASCAR racers In fact, if you fly United Airlines, there’s a good chance the members of the ramp crews have been through “Pit Crew U.” United is among many organizations sending employees to Pit Instruction & Training in Mooresville, North Carolina Real racing crews at this facility have trained United’s ramp workers to work under pressure while meeting the goals of teamwork, safety, and job preparedness The goal is better teamwork to reduce aircraft delays and service inadequacies.31 Team diversity also counts in team membership It represents the mix of skills, experiences, backgrounds, and personalities among team members The presence or absence of diversity on a team can affect both relationships among members and team performance And when diversity is present, just how well it is managed can make the difference between a team that struggles between failure or modest success and one that achieves something truly great It is easier to manage relationships among members of homogeneous teams—those whose members share similar characteristics But this sense of Find more at http://www.downloadslide.com OI-2
