as a individual person. In a team working, work is separated among all members and possible
to be complete it on a timely basis. In a team, every person must be perform a task and make
all effort towards job (Wibrow, 2011). Roles of person are as aligned below:

group and reduce conflict arises in the company. Everyone is performed well to meet the
objective of the company and complete task on time.
3.3 Alternative ways to complete task on time and achieve team goals
In order to completing team work there must be a communication held between
members (Ramli and et.al., 2010). Direct communication and interaction must be held

between all the team members. If there is any miscommunication among them then it may
reduce the performance and conflict surely arising. In Timbacourt. HR distribute work in
team and give a deadlines for it. Every group members have their own responsibility and own
strategies to complete them on time. In a retails business, organisation are must deliver latest
