Effective Teamwork
There are many variables which determine the effectiveness
of a team in business. The two most
important aspects for effective teamwork are communication and delegation. Communication is imperative because it helps
all individuals of the team feel united in their common goal. Good communication allows resources and
information to be passed quickly and efficiently, saving time and money. It keeps all the team members on the same
page, and encourages understanding between individuals. In his article "How to Improve Communication in Teamwork", Malik Sharrieff states that good communication increases productivity and lowers conflict.
Delegation in a group decreases confusion and increases individual efficiency. Catherine Capozzi believes that delegation reduces stress(Capozzi, prgh 4). Delegating tasks at the beginning of a project gives each team member a clear direction to go with their work. This does not mean that team members should work isolated from their teammates. All members of the team should be willing to accept and give constructive input about their portion of the work.
