Learning Outcome 1: Lead or participate collaboratively in teams
What?
Collaboration can be referred as an action in which one person or group of person work with
other people for producing some meaningful results (Dettmer, et. al., 2013). Collaboration is
most important and integrated part of teams.
Positive impact
As per my consideration, team collaboration provides various advantages in individual and
people who work under a team. As per my own experience, I have learned different new
concepts and methods of engineering during my group studies. Apart from this, there are some
other positive impacts or advantages of participating collaboratively in teams. Improve
flexibility, while working in a team, all group members’ work in a flexible manner so that they
can adopt new changes as soon as possible. As per my point of view, employees can provide
better satisfaction by working in teams. Engage people, as per my consideration team
collaboration provides an opportunity to people to engage with others (Hall, et. al., 2014). In
other words, team collaboration is the best technique through which organisation can engage all
employees at one place. Good working environment, the concept of team collaboration helps
people in working together with mutual understanding so that they can accomplish desired goals
and objectives in effective manner. As per my point of view, team collaboration is good method
of creating positive working environment within workplace. An innovative idea, team
collaboration is not an easy task it needs cooperation of all team members. According to my
point of view, organisation can generate more profit only by taking help of innovative business
ideas which can become possible only by encourage employee to participate collaboratively in
teams. Increased profitability, when all team member work together for completing one single
task then they do it in effective manner which helps organisation in generating high financial
profit. As per my consideration, team collaboration is very much important for business
enterprise because without employees’ cooperation it cannot accomplish its desired outcomes
(Jorm, et. al., 2016). Hence, these are some major positive impact of team collaboration which
helps organisation as well as individuals in improving their productivity as well as current
