• ASSIGNMENT 1: Planning an Effective Team
•  Planning an Effective Team
      “Get your talent in the right place on your team, so they can make the team successful.”        Coach Gibbs    Introduction
  Effective teams require effective team  members with key traits and characteristics. The leader of an effective  team must be able to define team roles, describe role responsibilities,  choose tasks for each role, and seek out team members with the skills to  complete these tasks. This assignment gives you an opportunity to show  these skills. In addition, it prepares you to complete your final course  assignment, A Report for Vice President’s Approval, due in Week 10. Scenario
  Your VP has asked you to create a new  team for a new product or service the company is introducing. You will  be building a team to support the product/service, which will consist of  5–7 members, which you will lead. In this assignment, you will complete  the first step in the process of creating an effective team: planning.  You will determine the roles needed on the team, describe these roles,  choose the tasks assigned to each role, and identify the skills team  members need to complete those tasks. Instructions
  Create a 1–2 page plan for your team that meets the following requirements: State your team’s purpose. This purpose should make clear the team’s shared goal, what the team does, for whom, and why. Example: We produce financial reports so our customers can receive timely, quality investment information. Explain the specific roles you will  need and what each will be responsible for. Describe the  responsibilities of the role, including the types of tasks the team  member performs. Remember to include yourself as the team leader. Your  team can be no larger than 5–7 people. As an example, you as leader might opt to have a Business Analyst (BA) as a member of the team. The Business Analyst would run reports, present an analysis of the data, and share findings with the leader and/or team. The Business Analyst would work with the team leader to provide data and analysis about the new product or service. What are the skills and/or traits you have identified each role will require and why are those critical? Continuing  with the Business Analyst example: The analyst must have strong  analytical ability and be great at using creativity, reasoning, and past  experiences to identify and solve problems effectively. A trait that is important for this role includes being detail-oriented and focused. Additionally, technical literacy is important as the BA must be proficient with basic computer skills. The BA must  possess the ability to work well in one or more groups and bring out the  best in others (teamwork skill) and outcomes. Identify and describe three strategies a  team leader could use to ensure the effectiveness of their team and why  those are important to foster. Submission Requirements
  Gather and review the resources you’ve  read during the first three weeks of the course. In your assignment, you  should use specific phrases, ideas, and quotes from the Strayer Videos,  Coach’s Huddle, Weekly Readings, and/or Discussion Questions to explain  and support your thoughts. Example:  “When Coach talked about hiring a former doctor to work at JGR, it made  me realize how important it is to identify and hire the right players  for your team.” Check your assignment for grammatical errors. Review what you have written for clarity. This course requires the use of Strayer  Writing Standards. For assistance and information, please refer to the  Strayer Writing Standards link in the left-hand menu of your course.  Check with your professor for any additional instructions. The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is: Outline the requirements and traits of an effective team.
