2UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE AND ORGANIZATIONS
Introduction
The term Team management indicates the ability of an organization or an individual
for administrating and coordinating the group of the individual for performing the selected
task (Bruce, Miller & Zimmerman, 2015). The team management involves the
communication, teamwork, performance appraisals and objective setting. In this study, the
importance of team management and its influencing factors have been analysed. How the
emotional intelligence, LPA and strength impacts on the team management have been
highlighted. Depending on the provided information, the study has focused on the integrated
strategies, which will be beneficial for the team management.
Part A
Selecting your team
Question 1
In this study, I have chosen a group of 4 members namely Emma, Tahlia, Simon and
Sunny. Among all the members I have chosen this four these four people as I have realized
that they have potentiality, which I can use as the team strength. Before choosing the group, I
have focused on few qualities such as strategic building, relationship building, influencing
and executing. Before starting the team management practices, I have tried to identify
emotional intelligence of my group, because of this increase the competitiveness of a group.
Depending on self-awareness, social relation, social awareness and self-management qualities
I have decided to analyse my group for making them efficient. I have also noticed that LPA
report is very important in the case of team management. Therefore, from the LPA report, I
have selected the members depending on their qualities. As I have analysed the strength and
talent on=f individuals, this has motivated me to select them for my project.

Question 2
From the LPA result and StrengthsQuest talent, I have noticed that Emma is a very
bright student with the quality of consistency. I have noticed the performance of this student
from last few days, and I have analysed that she has strong analytical power. This helps her in
the case of dealing with strange situations. On the other hand, I have also noticed that she is
very practical in dealing difficult situation and futurist too. The second student is Tahlia, who
is very positive towards her work. I have also noticed that she actively accepts the challenges.
The third student named Simon has the quality to take responsibility, and with the self-belief,
she achieves his goals and objectives. Sunny is deliberative, positive and responsible towards
his work. This quality has helped me to manage my team properly. This has also been
analysed by me that if I use these qualities as my team strength, it will bring positive
consequences for me.
Question 3
In order to bring the effective team management practices, I have taken various initiatives.
During this session, I have noticed that I group belongs to diversified culture due to this
reason conflicts among the member's increases. For belonging to the different culture, the
view of individuals is different. The ways of dealing with the situations are also different.
Due to this reason, the conflict in my team occurs. As culture is an important part and
impacts of individuals' emotion, therefore this can be said that this kind of conflicts in the
group influenced their efficiency. On the other hand, I have also noticed that as the group
members are specialized in the different field, this has created ego clash in the group. Due to
this reason I have faced various challenges.

Team building
Question 4
After developing my team, I have noticed that for achieving the goals and objectives
I need to focus on increasing my team efficiency. As I have mentioned the cultural conflicts
in my team, which has impacted on its overall productivity, therefore I have decided to
introduce leadership strategy for managing my team. I believe that in order to increase the
efficiency if I introduce different events for them so that they can interact with each other
properly, this will help me increase the effective communication I the team. I need to be more
polite to deal with the situation. I have taken the strategy to train my team members without
hurting their ego. Depending on the expertise, I will be given the task to the members, so that
they feel comfortable with doing their job. I have also noticed that by providing multiple
tasks, I can take a try to increase their efficiency. Appreciation is an important part of team
management. Therefore, I will properly appreciate my team members for their work, and they
will get interested to work in my team.
Question 5
In order to increase the efficiency of my team members, I have decided to conduct
plan in which has helped me increase the productivity of my team. In order to increase their
efficiency, I have provided training to the team members, so that they will be able to deal
with the challenges in the project. For increasing their analytical capability, I have provided
them with the different situation and told to manage. As it has noticed the issue regarding the
cultural gap, therefore, I have arranged different workshops to make my team members
sensible towards others culture. In order to increase the LPA result of my team members, I

have increased the upper-level involvement in my team. I have also decided to introduce the
audit team, which has played an important role in the case of managing the LPA
implementing process. I have also focused on improving the emotional intelligence of my
team members, by motivating them towards their work.
Part C
Analysis and reflection
Question 6
Group dynamics is considered as the behavioural system which impacts on the
psychological process that occurs in a group (Trischler, Kristensson & Scott, 2018). I have
identified that in the case of performance, all the team members are doing their jobs with
efficiency. This has helped in the case of increasing my team efficiency. As I have tried to
focus on improving the leadership management system in my group, however, due to lack of
monitoring the various types of changes have been occurred in the group. I have analysed that
formatting process is the effective step taken by me in the organization it has helped me to
help the team members to clarify their goals and objectives. Therefore this can be said that
role and dynamics of my team has profoundly influenced the performance of individuals.
This has also brought various changes in their behaviour, which has played to reduce cultural
conflict in my team.
Question 7
During managing my team, I have got to know my capabilities. I have analysed that I am
very good at convincing others. In the case of dealing the cultural conflicts, I have convinced
my team members to stop fighting, on the other hand, my strength is I love to take challenges.
Therefore, this quality of mine has helped me in the case of handling the difficult situation.

With the supportive team members, I have increased my productivity. As I am very positive
towards my work, this positive energy of mine helps me in the case of achieving my goals
and objectives in the organization. I have god leadership quality; this has helped me to
develop the strong relation with my team members. With this, I have got the chance to
understand the needs and problems of my team members. By managing their problems, I
have encouraged them towards their work.
Question 8
With the strength, I have has noticed my weakness, which has impacted on my
overall performance. I have analysed that I am short tempered and have poor communication
skill. In order to manage this weakness, I need to focus on developing my communication
skills. I control my anger, I can do meditations. This will be helping me in dealing this
situation. On the other hand, in group performance, I have seen lack of cooperation among
the team members. For increasing the cooperation among the employees, I need to introduce
different game plans for entertaining the team members. This will be helping them to work
with their co-workers by enjoying the game. This can be an effective step for my project to
engage my team members towards their work. On the other hand, I have also analysed that if
I will introduce the rewards for my team members or involve them in the decision making
process, this will be helping me to motivate my team members towards their work, which
will be very effective for my project development.
Conclusion
In this study, it has been identified that the team management is a critical practice,
which impacts on the overall productivity. This has also mentioned in this study that
depending on the efficiency of team members; the team achieve its goals and objectives the
importance of LPA in the team, has also been identified in this study. Depending on the

element in every team. If the given recommendations are followed, it will be helping in the
case of achieving the higher level of efficiency in the group.
