Select a team you know very well. An organizational team typically operates with 4-6 members. Therefore, try to select a team that is not smaller or larger than this. The team can be a group with which you work or it can be a group with which you are involved outside of work such as a church group, sports team, etc. You do not have to be involved with the team at the current time; just be able to recall details of your experience for analysis in this assignment.

You must refer to relevant academic concepts from the assigned reading. Research can also be supplemented from (but not solely based on) other information from academically credible resources.

Compose a 4- to 5-page, APA-formatted paper addressing the following:

-Assess the team's strengths and weaknesses (including but not limited to how they make decisions, how they handle conflict, etc.).

-Analyze the team dynamics including stage(s) of team development. Research can also be supplemented from (but not solely based on) other information from academically credible resources.

-Defend 2-3 recommendations for team performance improvement. Research can also be supplemented from (but not solely based on) other information from academically credible resources.

-Assess the level of trust evident in team interactions, including recommendations for improvement. Research can also be supplemented from (but not solely based on) other information from academically credible resources.

-Justify a leadership style which would be appropriate for this team based on assigned reading concepts/theory. Research can also be supplemented from (but not solely based on) other information from academically credible resources.

-Defend a plan to facilitate a higher motivation level of team members.

Include an APA-formatted reference list and a title page (these do not count toward the minimum page requirements).
