Introduction
The primary aim of this report is to reflect upon my roles and responsibilities as a team
member. We as a team of four members had been provided with the opportunity of forming a
feasibility report on five or six different scenarios which were provided to us. Hence, we choose
the opportunity to deal with the rising obesity in the United Kingdom. As a team we wanted to
ensure that we perform well and are able to successfully ensure that as we are being provided
with an opportunity to explore theoretical concepts along with real world examples, we can
successfully learn to be ready for the real corporate world.
Roles played
Our team like any other team comprised of different members who had to complete a
designated task and be able to ensure that the feasibility study which was conducted was
completed before the designated deadline, and that all the requirements were being successfully
met with. In this aspect, we were given out different responsibilities and roles. According to
Chance (2013), the roles of the team members must be abided by in order to ensure the success
of the organization in the long run. In the team, I was provided the role of monitoring and
evaluating. In this role, I was required to ensure that the performance standards of the different
team members were being maintained effectively. Furthermore, I was also provided with the
responsibility of ensuring that all the members contributed equally to the purpose of the team.
Group dynamics with respect to delivering the report
The group which we were a part of was a task group and was essentially formed with the
objective of ensuring that we were successfully able to achieve the different group objectives
(Georgiadis 2014). Hence, being in the university, although we knew each other, we did not
know one another`s behavior (Crawford and LePine 2013). Initially this proved to be a problem
in our interactions, but later on as the dynamics of the group improved and we became friendlier
towards one another, it became comparatively easy to delegate the tasks and to achieve all the
group objectives (Wagner III and Hollenbeck 2014).
