IMPORTANCE OF TEAM WORK IN ORGANIZATIONS

'


Teamwork simply defined as a state of unity achieved within a group of people working for a specific economic benefit (Amin, 2011). Teamwork in an organization basically used to define the coordination and corporation between members. "A team is a small number of people with complementary sills who are committed to a common purpose, performance goals and approach for which they hold themselves mutually accountable'. In addition to that, regular communication, coordination, distinctive roles, and shared norms are also important features.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL WORK AND TEAMWORK

Siddique (2015) stated the difference between individual and teamwork as follows,

INDIVIDUAL WORK

TEAM WORK

Work on tasks

Shared responsibility

Work on revised tasks

Better problem solving

Research / developing

Stronger relationships

Networking

Agree on goals / milestones

 

Communicate / process monitoring

According to Reddy (2020), there are several factors which help to make team a success. Some of them are,

  • Clear understanding of team mission.
  • Commitment towards goals
  • Predefined roles and responsibilities
  • Proper decision making process
  • Productive group working process

ADVANTAGES OF TEAMWORK

  • Creativity and learning
  • Idea generation
  • Sharing the workload
  • Brings various personality types
  • Boost productivity
  • Strong work ethics and team spirit

CONCLUSION-

The present day organization assign role to the individuals in a way that they inter related and interdependent upon each other. These interactions of people in small groups bring forth an important question of team work. Team members who participate in successful, effective teams may actually get more in the long run (Sharma, 2012). When done well, teams can bring a lot of good things to an organization. When done poorly, they can sap motivation out of an organization faster than almost anything else. Ineffective teams are a bad sign for the future of an organization.

  6. Teamwork often decreases the work burden on any employee, allowing him to be rigorous in the performance of the positions assigned. Every employee should have a position that fits his specialization when sharing ideas or responsibilities. You should also recognize the level of involvement of employees in the project at hand, which positively affects the effectiveness or pace of their performance in carrying out the task.

  10. When a team works harmoniously and well, it gives team members a sense of belonging. Everyone wants to be on a winning team but you can’t always win. The setbacks of being part of a team are more tolerable because they are shared. Team members comfort and support each other, remind everyone of their successes, and they will win again together. This promotes strong working relationships.
