MAIN BODY
ESSAY
In the recent times, the importance of managing and developing teams is increasing day
by day. Companies at the marketplace, try to use professional techniques in order to deal with
different consequences of team development. Developing standards in a team is the most
important function of management which enables a a team to perform specific functions in order
to achieve the objectives and goals. In the recent times, the importance of managing team is
increasing with a increase in market forces. The leadership theories are mainly related to develop
team performance with appropriate measures. It is the responsibility and duty of the company to
briefly analyse different theories of leadership and choose the best. The evaluation of leadership
theories is crucial for the management in order to increase team and employee satisfaction. In the
corporate world, many successful companies take helps of leadership and its support to manage
large number of workforce for the company (Fehr, 2018). The leadership theory includes
application of leadership related functions in a business for its long term and sustainable growth.
Companies in the competitive world, majorly focus on evaluating theories of management of
leadership functions. The main aim of different companies is on applying the democratic style in
order to succeed at the marketplace. This is main role and responsibility of a company to choose
democratic leadership as it facilitates management of employees. Advantages of democratic
leadership style mainly focus on effective approaches of decision making by formulating risk
free decisions. Many global and international companies focus on selecting appropriate
management style in order to gain marketplace advantage.
The leadership theory includes three major types of leadership approaches which are
beneficial for a company to manage different operations. First leadership theory includes
autocratic leadership, which states that decisions related to organisation will be formulated by the
leader. In this approach there is a facilitation of decision making in the company, major
companies in the marketplace, also use this approach for formulating quick decisions. Another
major leadership style is democratic leadership style, which includes the decision making by the
team members. . In the democratic leadership style, there is a formulation of effective decision
making which helps it to grow in a sustainable manner (Magnusen, 2018). It is recommended for
a domestic or global company to include democratic leadership in its operations to gain effective

competitive advantage. Companies should focus on the last leadership style which is called
laissez faire style, this type of leadership leaves decision making solely on group members. This
style is appropriate for leadership related activities and helps the company to manage the
employees in a systematic manner (Marshall, 2019). The tools and techniques used by a business
to use leadership practices are effective in maximising effectiveness and efficiency of company.
In order to achieve the organisational goals in a specified period of time, it is major
responsibility of company to include major practices that are positive for business. In a company,
the democratic leadership theory, main focus is on developing cultural values by maintaining
decision making. Virtual teams are formation of organisational employees and connect them
with an online portal. It is essential to develop virtual teams, especially in the time of COVID-19
in order to formulate and develop risk free operations. Developing virtual team is essential for
the business in order to complete tasks with the support of information and technology.
Information and technology, is the main key to success for a business in order to develop
systematic goals. The software like customer relationship management should be maintained
with utmost sincerity in order to increase their satisfaction. Many companies in international and
national marketplace focus on CRM in order to develop significant operations. In the
development of a company, virtual team will play a crucial role as they perform operations with
greater stability. Also the companies should maintain effective management information
system(MIS) in order to manage coordination between staff members. Company should also
develop virtual team and provide them work from opportunity in the tough times of COVID-19.
It is the major role and responsibility of a company to perform regular audit and assessment of
virtual teams in order to develop their performance (Mestry, 2021). The virtual teams in a
company should be managed with effective supervision and control in order to develop
competitive advantage. Also this will help the business entity to develop ethical values in a
business for performing systematic operations.

Multiple teams are present in both multinational and national organisations which impact
on major functions of the company. The multiple teams are reliable for a business to manage all
operations and developments in a systematic manner. Companies should also remain positive
throughout the financial year and put a significant impact on company's operations. It is also one
of the major objective of the company to develop systematic operations in a sustainable manner
for long term development of the business (Motschnig, 2019). It is also major responsibility of
the company to include best business practices that are effective in solving major queries of
employees. Managing multiple team is not an easy task by the company as it leads to create
chaos in the organisation. It is major duty of the strategic management of a company to manage
large number of employees by hiring skilled employees. Deployment of effective leaders in the
company will also help the business to gain marketing success. This will lead the company to
maintain precise and focused skills in managing teams of the company. It is the major
responsibility of a business organisation to focus on development of team. The motivation is
considered as one of the major techniques which increases mental strength in a person that will
help in individual development. Motivation brings stability in operations and functions of the
company which helps in increasing overall productivity of the employees. It is also a major task
of the management of a company to choose content or process theories of motivation in company
to regularly motivate different employees. It is also a key responsibility of the company to
allocate human resources in a significant manner to increase market stability (Mukherjee, 2019).
The future teams in a company should be developed with the help of precise business strategy. It
is also major duty of management to establish effective infrastructure and internal environment
for gaining sustainable growth. It is very hard and difficult for the business to manage effective
resources by the help of leadership in order to increase sustainable growth in marketplace. The
teams should be developed in an effective manner for the future in order to understand current
trends of business. Development of teams in an organisation also requires professional and
systematic approach which will be beneficial for whole company (Ng, 2018). It is also moral
duty of management to consider different parameters of team development by deployment of
professional leaders. The team members of a company are also liable for following all the
necessary and regular instructions which are provided by the management. It is also a key role of
top level management in a company to consider major practices of team development.

Communication is the major way to handle team development in a systematic manner by
increasing the coordination between team members. In a company, it should be compulsory for
the management to select appropriate communication channels in order to establish effective
relationship. The communication skills should be practised in order to effectively coordinate
between team members in a set period of time. Another major aspect in developing team is
discipline, as it helps in development of calmness and stability in management of teams. There is
always requirement for effective skills in the employees and these skills are helpful in increasing
organisational strength. In a company, there should be presence of time management skills which
are important for an individual to develop routine work with responsibility. The time
management skills will help the business to complete different tasks which are helpful in
achievement of goals and objectives (Rietzschel, 2021). Companies should maintain effective
competitive edge with the help of skills in order to increase employee morale. Balancing the
skills should be practised by both employees and organisation in order to compete at the
marketplace. It is also important to focus on balancing skills in order to develop effective
performance which will lead to develop organisational development.
In the corporate world, experience related to management also plays a significant role in
selection of a person a manager in a multinational company. Many different companies in the
marketplace, focus on developing balancing of skills in order to increase performance of
different employees (Seshadri, 2021). The companies requires all skills in a professional manner
in the organisation to lead the marketplace with stability. Also it is major task of the company to
focus on skill development of employees for achievement of long and short term business goals.
In the recent times, companies are focusing on maintaining leadership skills in the employees for
sustainable growth. In the functioning of a company, there is also a requirement of decision
making skills which helps a business to formulate risk free decisions. The decision-making skills
should be present in all staff of a business in order to lead the marketplace. It is important for a
business entity to develop timely coordination skills in the employees for future growth. A
person in the academic life should develop desired skills with the help of professors and seniors.
Developing these skills will help individuals to gain effective growth in career related life for
achievement of goals and objectives (Varhelahti, 2021). Experience should be developed by a
candidate in academic life in order to gain growth in career endeavours. It is also major
responsibility of the management to focus on development of a set of skills in order to develop

effective functions. In academic life, the discipline also plays a crucial role which should be
maintained by a student in a proposed manner. Maintaining academic discipline will help the
business entity to develop effective operations with utmost responsibility. The effective
responsibility of management of a company is to also provide effective training and development
to different employees. It is also a key role of the management to focus on time management
skills and performance management in order to achieve best results. It is also a major function of
a company to develop teams by the help of coordination and communication.
