Document Summary
For a team to be full effective, all members must participate. Silent members should be encouraged without being forced. Talkers have something to say about everything and tend to dominate the discussion. They have to learn to wait their turn. Solution - use the rotation method where all members take turns giving their input. They like to argue rather than help with the progress of the group. Do not get into an argument with an arguer. If an argument does start, bring others into the discussion. Work less in groups than they would by themselves since individual contributions are less noticeable. Emphasize member responsibilities by identifying individual contributions to the group. Division of duties assignment of different tasks to each member. There is no real team effort! do not lose the opportunity for synergy. By working together, teams may achieve what ordinarily would be difficult to achieve alone.
