develop the relationships among various team members.

CVF'S ACTION IMPERATIVES
CVF is one of the main way to understand the culture if the teamwork which stands for Competing Values Framework
which was created in 1983 by Robert Quinn and John Rohrbaugh for measuring the individual leadership and behaviour.
◦ Collaborate Quadrant(Yellow)- While making the project, learners became highly valued and focused on the long term
success of the project.
◦ Create Quadrant(Green)- Under this quadrant the main focus is on the big picture, ideas to manage the resources.
◦ Compete Quadrant(Blue)-This quadrant is all about to do things quickly for the immediate accomplishment of the
goals which keeps the structure of the teamwork in a hierarchical and structured manner.
◦ Control Quadrant(Red)- I know that I have always preferred to be working in a team as I like to do things with a team
rather than alone. I preferred the Compete Quadrant (blue) while making the project as it helps to do things quickly for
the immediate accomplishment of the goals that is in occur case is the project which was based on the Lady Diana
Princess of Hearts.

CONCLUSION
Teamwork requires the effective management to attain
specific goals of the a particular project with the available
resources. A proper management helps in completion of tasks
correctly in minimum time to yield desired results of the
project. This report helped in demonstration of the use of
motivational theories to keep the team motivated and perform
better. Motivational theories such as Maslow Hierarchy of
Needs and Vroom's theory of expectancy helped to keep the
teamwork stable and lead to achieve the goals of the
teamwork. It further explained the role of CVF in self actions
and behaviours.
