MANUAL TEAMWORK, LEADERSHIP AND NEGOTIATION

TEAMWORK, LEADERSHIP AND NEGOTIATION

Different points of view, which may have a positive component, help the group to mature and move forward, but at the same time can hinder its functioning.

The way in which the group resolves possible conflicts is of great importance in achieving group cohesion. Undoubtedly, in the case of the BabyLike company, this aspect will have to be worked on early on in the team. It is up to the coordinator to gather the necessary information to be able to successfully resolve the conflict established between the members of the two groups.

Some attitudes that help cohesion

1. Spend time talking and listening to people, taking an interest in personal matters: How was your holiday? How are you feeling? 2. Contribute and share elements that optimise the physical working environment in general and not only our individual space: plants, paintings, photographs... 3. Organise social events and ensure the participation of all, not just a few. 4. Ensure that news affecting the team reaches all members; email is an effective tool. 5. Watch out for changes in your colleagues' attitudes and try to find out why.

3.4. The team as a dynamic entity

The team is an open system in evolution that is influenced by a multitude of factors. We could make a comparison between the evolutionary period of an individual and the evolution of a work team.

Thus, we could talk about:

Birth or creation of the team.
