INTRODUCTION
Principles of management is the universal phenomenon which is applied in the normal
course of business activities under various circumstances and helps to provide requisite training
to the managers so that they are capable of taking scientific decisions(Holweg, et.al. 2018). It
ensures optimum utilization of resources and amount of wastage of resources can be predicted by
using trial and error method so that loss can be avoided easily. These rules give the authority to
the managers to decide the measures to be taken to achieve the given tasks effectively.
This report will reflect on the group work by applying various teamwork and
motivational theories for improving the teamwork and discussion on CVF actions while making
research along with the group of people.
MAIN BODY
Based on the team work, our group adopted the Belbin and Tuckman theory to improve
the team performance.
Belbin theory
Every organization is divided into various teams and each one of them has its own roles to play
and have different procedures and code of conduct. In an organization various conflicts and
breakdown occurs which can affect the efficiency of a team(Su, et.al. 2019). This theory is
founded so that each member within the team can understand their part and helps to identify the
roles, strengths, weakness and ability of an individual. .
There are nine Belbin team roles -Research investigator, Team worker, Co-ordinator, Plant,
Monitor evaluator, Specialist, Shaper, Implementer and Completer finisher.
1. Resource investigator: They are good in research, other developments and helps to bring back
ideas in our team(Jiafu,Yu,andTao, 2018). It also helped help in building good communication
in our team.
2. Team worker: Team workers encourage harmony in our team and creates an informal
communication system in our group which boosted the team spirit to achieve the team
objectives.
3. Co-ordinators: I was focused on guilding the team to achieve the goals and creates co-
operation among the team members by delegating them the authority.

4 Plants:Plants are highly creative and are best at resolving the problems of the company and
applying different methods to solve them and helps in building creativity and generating new
ideas in our team to solve any problem in a team.
5. Monitor evaluator: I assured that our team doesn't make mistakes and helps in analysing the
problems, evaluating them and resolving the issue.
6. Specialist: They are the individual who has specialized knowledge in a particular area and
convey its ideas in the team and every leader gathered the ideas from the team members in their
respective fields.
7 Shaper:It ensures that that our team is dedicated towards the goals of the organization and
does not lose focus in achieving the goals.
8. Implementer-It states that our team should plan a strategy and implement effectively in the
achieving the team goals.
9. Completer Finisher:It helps to identify the errors and work on them and resolve them.
Tuckman theory
It is known theory for team development and it mainly focuses on the ideas and strategies
through which a team handles its tasks from the initial stage to implementing the project and it is
known theory for team development(Casper , 2017). There are five stages in the development of
a team-Forming, Storming, Norming and Performing and Adjourning.
1. Forming: In the initial stage, our team discuss the assigned tasks, its deadlines, the purpose of
the given projects. It helps in building informal relations within a team.
2. Storming:Storming is that stage where our team members openly share views and opinions
with the other team members and disagreements takes place among the team members. Efforts
are made to manage the avoid the competition among members and efforts are made to build the
communication within the team, and I was involved in solving the conflicts which raised in
storming stage related to the opinions of the members of the group.
3. Norming: The team feels motivated and accept the opinions of the other members in the team
and work towards achieving the team goals.
4. Performing:In this stage I motivated the team members so that they become confident and
focus towards achieving the goals.

5. Adjourning:It is final stage after the task has been accomplished where the teams dissolve and
individuals are allotted in other teams for other tasks.
Motivational theories are classified into Content and Process Theories
Hertzberg Two Factor motivational Theory
Hertzberg two factor theory also known as Hertzberg's motivation-hygiene theory defines that
there are various factors in an organization which causes job satisfaction and a set of factors
which causes dissatisfaction in the employees and these factors acts severally to each
other(Staempfli, and Lamarche, 2020). The two factors are classified into Motivational factors
and Hygiene factors-
1. Motivational factor:These factors help our team to work hard and focus on the defined goals
and includes achievements, recognition, work off, responsibility, advancement and growth. The
presence of these factors will encourage our team and increase the morale of the worker and will
improve performance of our group members. As a team member I focused on both the
motivational and hygiene factor to lead the team in achieving the goals.
2. Hygiene factors:Hygiene factors are those factors which are essential for motivating the
employees and positively affects them. The policies of the companies should be fair and equal to
the every member in the organization and there should be no biasness in a team. As m member
of the team I focused on safe and healthy work environment to motivate the team to remain
focus on achieving the set team goals.
McClelland's theory of needs
This theory helps us to identify the paramount motivators of the people in our team. Persons
having high achievements needs takes the initiatives to solve the problem which helps to
increase their abilities and knowledge skills(Novianty and Evita, 2018) . People with high power
have the ability to dominate, influence and control others. Individual in a team likes to interact
with other members and build ethical relation within the team.
Goal theory
This theory indicates and provides direction to the team members about the objectives and the
efforts to put in the achievement of the same. It is related to the willingness to work for the goals
and states that the objectives of the firm should be clear, definite and should be understood by
the member(Ong, 2019). The goals should be realistic so that our team members should feel
proud and rewarded after the handwork and efforts involved.

CVF’s Action Imperatives
When my group planned to visit the Museum of London due to lock-down issue we were unable
to go there. So group of my friends collaborated with each other and researched on it. I played
great leadership role while we were working on this research activity. I have maintained good
human relation with my people and coordinated with each other which result in creating better
understanding. We have developed good area of research with the help of my friend I gather all
the information related to the Museum. We have learned about the “historical person” as well as
Museum. Our main purpose is to acquire how things and people maintain lifestyle and mange to
work in ancient time. My friends enjoy the activity we have done while making research report.
As everyone contributed in this activity, we create great and innovative ideas for further growth.
Along with this we built amazing knowledgeable community.
Our parents and teachers supported us in gathering the information. We came to know
that the organization need to build strategy in order to achieve the organization. I have learned
that work life balance play vital role in maintaining any activity whether it is related to
education, curriculum programme. The investigation on museum was fantastic. While doing the
activity we divided the task among the people of my group.
When I was leading person of my group the great quality of work was delivered. We
improved our performance with the assistance of everyone's plan of action. In order to control
the work I structured different working values and asked my team members to perform cultural
activities. We also collaborated with the people who were working there, and they helped us in
managing the activity successfully. When we were facing difficulty they also guided us.
We faced many challenges but with the unity we were able to over come the challenges.
In order to achieve something we have to give our efforts and need to adopt different culture .
While controlling, I asked them for feedback and contribute in decision-making. So we can
develop creative things in the activity. I played a great leadership role while we were working on
the research . I have maintained good human relation with my people and coordinated with each
other which result in creating better understanding. We have developed good area of research
with the help of my friend I gather all the information related to the Museum. We have learned
about the historical person as well as Museum. Our main purpose is to acquire how things and
people maintain lifestyle and mange to work in ancient time. My friends enjoy the activity we
have done while making research report. As everyone contributed in this activity, we create great

and innovative ideas for further growth. Along with this we built amazing knowledgeable
community.
CONCLUSION
From the above report we can conclude that motivation is very important for the management
and the productivity of the organization. Every employee should understand the vision of the
company and make efforts to achieve those. The employer on other hand should know the
factors that motivates the employees and improve their job performance. Various motivational
theories have been adopted to motivate them to work hard and improve their job performance.
