Managing Groups and Teams

Introduction

The ability to organize and coordinate a group of individuals who are set to undertake

a particular activity is referred to as a group or team management. Such management is based

on some commitments which usually go hand in hand with viable policies. The role of group

managers is to formulate ideologies which not only leads to the success of the activity but

also maintain the cohesiveness of the group (Chansler, Swamidass & Cammann, 2013).

There is a difference that occurs between a group and a team that must be understood to

know the relevant management techniques applicable. A group refers to an assembly of

individuals who manage their specific efforts. A team, contrariwise, is a group of individuals

who work together towards a common purpose. The objective of this paper is to outline

some of the methods used for the management of both groups and teams.

Teamthink and Groupthink

Teamthink is often regarded as cooperative thinking that involves every member of

the team and aimed towards the success of their objective. Under teamthink, every individual

tries to show care for each other’s perspective (RHEE, 2017). The members are also always

ready to take options which can be deemed viable and effective in achieving their goals.

Every managerial aspect has its benefits and drawbacks, and so does teamthink.

Benefits of Teamthink

Better decisions: - when different people come together to reason over a particular

issue, they tend to come up with divergent opinions. The debates experienced when each of

the members tries to prove a point leads the team to a more viable option.
