3.2
Team is regarded as an association of people who work together to achieve a common
aim and objective of the team (Slater, 2010). Teams are generally formed for numerous purposes
and at Hilton hotel, teams are formed on the basis of formal and informal aspects. When people
work in a team, they have to consider a lot of things and they should also emphasize on shared
roles and responsibilities (Raybould and Sheedy, 2005). Team dynamics is a very important
9

aspect of Hilton hotel because it can have a big impact on productivity of the hotel. However,
most of the time team dynamics are neglected and ignored. This can have a significant impact
on the way a team works and it is also affecting Hilton hotel in many ways (Fallows and Steven,
2000). Apparently, team building is considered as a never ending process because it involves
range of people and efforts in meeting organizational aims and objectives.
When the employees of Hilton hotel needs to manage complex work processes, then they
should work in teams as it can help them to achieve objectives in proper way. Team dynamics
reflects the way how different people (culturally diversified people) work together in a team for a
common goal (Wilton, 2011). As per team dynamics, it is essential for organisational members
to manage appropriate environment in the team so that overall success facets can be enhanced.
As per team dynamics, the focus should be kept on maintaining proper relationships with people
so that objectives can be achieved. At Hilton hotel, teams are developed for the purpose of
maintaining formal structure in the hotel entity. This is yet another approach that lies under team
dynamics. There should be appropriate sharing of information among the team members so that
the defined aims of the team can be fulfilled (Myers, 2013).
3.3
Hilton hotel needs to emphasize on several methods and strategies for the purpose of
meeting the goals. In this respect, teams should be formed for work division and this will also
assist in completing the work in proper way (Lowden and et.al., 2011). Apparently, an individual
cannot contribute to meet organizational aims; there teams and groups should be formed for
accomplishing the tasks and objectives. Several ways are mentioned here: Development of suitable teams: Hilton hotel should focus on team development so that
coordination can be developed among people along with the ability to manage team
aspects. There should be proper delegation of duties and authorities among people so
that they can handle all their responsibilities in effective manner. Collection of feedback from the employees: When people work together, they face
numerous problems; hence they should maintain direct communication with each other
for reducing all the gaps. In this respect, it is vital for Hilton hotel to collect feedback
and opinion from all the employees in terms of feedback on organizational processes
10

(Myers, 2013). This will not only resolve the issues; but also it will aid in
comprehending the perception of all the workforce. Effective leadership: Hilton hotel needs to ensure that the management is concerned
about effective leadership in which there should be a leader appointed who can direct
employees to work according to organizational standards. This will also help people to
become more loyal towards their responsibilities (Guskey, 2000).
 Appropriate focus on employee recognition and motivation: Manager as well as leader
of Hilton hotel should continuously focus on employee retention and motivation facets
so that people can contribute their efforts in meeting organizational objectives.
Henceforth, with the help of all these methods, Hilton hotel will be able to reach
towards organizational objectives through coordinative team efforts (Fallows and
Steven, 2000).

Problems, issues and challenges are apparent for every business entity and Hilton is a
large business entity where numerous people work together, so the hotel also faces varied
problems in different domains (Raybould and Sheedy, 2005). In this respect, suitable tools and
methods should be applied which are mentioned in the below section: Brainstorming: Brainstorming sessions should always be conducted when Hilton hotel
faces any sort of serious issue and challenge. This will assist the hotel entity to collect
appropriate information about the resolution strategy. Having an open session will help
everyone to present their opinions and the business may find out the best solution to
eradicate the issue from its root. Apart from this, it will also assist the manager of Hilton
hotel to comprehend the intellectual ability of employees (Wilton, 2011). Decision matrix: Decision matrix is a complex framework that is associated with
different suggestions and feedback. Thus, while reaching to any decision, manager of
Hilton hotel should ensure that views of all the employees are taken into account for
suitable solutions. Decision matrix would also provide the probability of success; hence
application of the tool would aid Hilton hotel to eradicate organizational issues.
11

 Process Map: With the help of process map, it is essential for Hilton hotel to map the
problem with different solutions so that suitable resolution can be undertaken as per the
situation. In this respect, manager of Hilton hotel needs to ensure that each and every
employee is involved in decision making process (Williams, 2005). The procedure is
also useful for enhancing coordination and motivation among people; hence it needs to
be applied in the business scenario.
4.2
Problems related to communication is being observed at Hilton hotel wherein employees
are unable to share their opinion with each other. This also shows that the management is not
able to manage things appropriately (Slater, 2010). Thus, as per the issue, suitable strategy
should be developed for underpinning the value of communication. In the below section,
communication strategy is being discussed that leads can assist the hotel to eradicate the
problem.
 The management of Hilton should develop clear communication with people wherein
transparency should be maintained. This is also essential for sharing things prominently
among people.
 However, there should be proper management under different hierarchies so that
information can be shared suitably (Raybould and Sheedy, 2005). In order to underpin
the existing communication procedure, it is crucial for Hilton hotel to create a systematic
structure so that sharing of information can be managed.
 There should be use of different sources and modes of communication so that people
may not find any difficulty in sharing the things.
 All the team members working at Hilton hotel needs to o discuss the modes to be taken
for communicating with the top management. This is also significant for undertaking
better organizational decisions (Overtoom, 2000).
 Having clear and concise communication process will assist in sharing things and it will
also help people to adopt new things as per the organizational requirements.
 Since, communication gap can create a lot of issues in the organization; therefore
looking towards this concern, Hilton hotel should adopt appropriate strategic aspects.
