How would you compose a team for completing a course/work project in terms of the three dimensions listed above. How would you incorporate diversity in designing a team?            Building a team for a course/work project is very crucial for the success of the project and relies heavily on analyzing the goals of the project that you need to accomplish. Some of the main characteristics that are required to build a good team include:·      Stating the purpose of the project·      Charting out specific roles that can be assigned to the team members·      A leadership that is acceptable to the whole team·      Effective and seamless processes to avoid any bottle-necks in operations and communication·      Healthy relationships between the members of the teamUnderstanding the meaning and purpose of building teams gives us a good starting point on how to compose a team for your project (Drolet, 2004). The main purpose of group is to accomplish the set objectives for a project in the most efficient way possible. I would choose a team that consists of members that have particular skillsets that align to the necessary objectives that are to be accomplished to have a successful finish. Another important task is to elect a leadership that is both competent in carrying out the responsibility and also be acceptable to the team to follow the directions of the leader. The last and most important aspect is to manage operations in a way that all the team members feel inclusive, realize their responsibility and always stay motivated to work in the best interests of the team towards the completion of the project (Harvey, 2004). While building the team, I would consider all the above characteristics in mind and to incorporate the right diversity, I would choose talent and hard work as a key factor that aligns with the interests of the project to accomplish the set goals in the most efficient way possible.2) Discuss team identity. Why do you feel attached to certain groups and teams but not to others?            Team identity may be defined by the aspirations and objectives that the team shares and strives to achieve through collaboration with each other. This plays a major role in the excellence and out of the box solutions that some of the teams bring out through their work in a very consistent way. Team members feel gravitated towards each other when there are factors like the feeling of inclusiveness within the team, shared aspirations, playing along with each other and belief in the management and leadership (Eckel, 2005). I would like to consider these as some of the main reasons why people get attached to certain groups than others.ReferencesHarvey, T. R., & Drolet, B. (2004). Building teams, building people: Expanding the fifth resource. R&L Education.Eckel, C. C., & Grossman, P. J. (2005). Managing diversity by creating team identity. Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, 58(3), 371-392.Post 2:Part 1: Think about how to build teams in terms of designing the task, selecting the people, and then, managing their relationships. How would compose a team for completing a course/work project in terms of the three dimensions listed above. How would you incorporate diversity in designing a team? It is extremely important to build a proper team in order to achieve the desired goals, based on the project design the team leader has to build his team. If the team is one dimensional, it will have a big impact on the outcome of the project. So, the leader has to make sure that he has a multi-dimensional team to overcome any challenges that might arise during this course. The team should know what is expected from them, each member should have set goals and they have to make sure that the resource chosen for a certain task is the right fit in order to achieve it.Each task they have designed should have a precise goal, once the tasks are designed they have to assign it to an appropriate resource by assessing his skills and they have to make sure all the tasks are assigned to suitable members. Once the tasks are refined, the leader should bring the team together and he has made sure each team member is cooperating with each other and willing to help in case of any issues. This mutual support helps to maintain a healthy relationship among the team members and lays the path for success and a good work environment.Part 2: Discuss team identity. Why do you feel attached to certain groups and teams but not to others?Team identity can be defined as a bond that pulls individuals toward participation in a specific group and opposes par from that particular group. It is multidimensional and is influenced by such factors as the degree of cooperation between group members, group acceptance of the individual member. Interpersonal attraction is one of the characteristics of team identity and this implies group members have an inclination or interested to communicate with each other, gathering individuals appreciate this collaboration and make the most out of it. It sounds like a big claim but transparent environments help to develop a feeling of mutual respect between team members and team leaders. Via open and consistent communication, transparent and authentic workplaces help employees to feel secure in their positions. Group Pride is another characteristic of team identity and this includes group members seeing their participation to a particular gathering with affection. They feel glad for their group membership and sticking to the group feels profitable. Each group member values the work of the entire group and has complete belief in their abilities to achieve the assigned goals, they will work together and support each other to complete the tasks.                                          ReferencesDeering S, Johnston LC, Colacchio K.

How would you incorporate diversity in designing a team?Team design is a very important factor in high power teams and in order to compose one we have to start by assessing all the team members strength and weakness. With this, we can decide the roles that will be played by each member of the team. Demographics play a huge role in how the team composition should work, given that each demographic might have characteristics traits. Considering demographic criteria is important in the shaping of a team and the ability for the team to be successful. After team selection, the next step will be working out how the team dynamics work by selecting leaders and deligating position to the different members of the team. In order to build a diverse team we should try and put our self in other peoples shoes and learn to celebrate cultural difference, when we do this we will typically want to hire a diverse group of team members and diversity in the team should be based on different factors like sex, orientation, character types whether slow or fast learner, introvert and extroverts, with this we can have a wide variety of viewpoints which helps the team. Discuss team identity. Why do you feel attached to certain groups and teams but not to others?Team Identity is the ability for an individual to feel like they have the same ideas and identify with their team. This is an important factor in the team functioning properly and effectively because people that identify with a team and have a sense of belonging to a team have a better desire to work together.  I identify with teams that have a highly positive attitude and mood, with good communication and are willing to share information easily between each other.ReferenceStein, E.
