Team working Notes
We will mainly collaborate! So, we will work together and use
different skills to do different things, i.e. one person might be really
good at editing videos and someone else is good at animating, they
can then create a video that features animation.
We need to focus on conflict resolution. Conflicts can happen often
in a group project, so we have to make sure to deal with it quickly to
ensure that it doesn’t affect the group and work. Some ways to deal
with conflict is to communicate about the topic of the conflict and
decide on what should be done through the team. Also make sure to
listen to the other person if you are part of the conflict, as this will
allow them to feel like they are valued in the team.
There should be a set leader, this is because there needs to be
someone that is able to objectively decide on things, such as if there
is a conflict they are the person that should help to solve it. The roles
of the leader will be to make sure that the group members are doing
their set tasks and work, and to ensure that everyone has a fair
amount of work. Without a leader the group could risk falling apart.
Co-operation is key when working in a team. This means that we
must be willing to do work that we may not want to do but is
important to the group overall.
Communication, Consensus and Contracting, are all vital to group
works. Consensus means that we have a general agreement, that can
then be decided upon in further detail, this will help there to be less
conflicts about opposing opinions about the task. Contracting is
where the group all agree on things, this is helpful for coming up
with the whole idea, or even smaller details.

2. We should work to get to know each other, this will help us as a
group because it means that we will know each other’s personality
types and how they work on projects.
Everyone in the group needs to take responsibility otherwise it won’t
work out.
