Teamwork and Problem Solving

By Elio E

Now, as

part of my job, I get to dive into countless books, and I must say, this one is an

absolute delight. No need for any unnecessary delay, let me give you a sneak peek

into what makes it so worthwhile. Are you ready? Let's jump right in with the

introduction .Organisational life is full of examples of how people tend to form groups.

There are also unofficial

groups, cliques, and factions in addition to organised groups, committees, and

teams.Formal groups are used to organise anddivide work, share information, make

plans, manage activities, get people more involved, negotiate, solve problems, and

doinvestigations. Group work lets people combinetheir individual skills and knowledge

andmakes up for what each person lacks. Estimateshow that most managers spend about

half of their working day in some kind of group. Forthe top managers of big companies,

this can bea problemincrease to 80%. So, it's clear that organised groups are an important

part of how an organisationworks.Groups that don't meet often are just as important. Most

of the time, these are set up more to meet the social needs of people than to help them do

jobs. Informal groups generally help people feel like

they belong and give them a place to talk about themselves and get support, among other

things. Butthese informal groups can also have a big impact on official work tasks. For

example, they may put members under subtle pressure to stick to a certain work rate or

serve as "places" where people sharenews, gossip, etc.
