Wk4 Discussion – Managing Team Resources
The ability to form a team, communicate in a team, and resolve conflicts in a team are all valuable skills for anyone in the modern workplace. However, having these skills alone does not automatically ensure team success. Having a mission focus and fostering collaboration are critical components to team effectiveness. Managing team resources will be the focus of our discussion this week.
For this week’s discussion, consider the learning activities you’ve completed and your own experience within a team.
Respond to the following in a minimum of 275 words:
- What are the most valuable resources within a team?
- Who do you feel should be responsible for determining how team resources are used?
