A project team - your task for next time we meet What do you think is your own main strength that you bring into a project team How should the team be organized to bring about different persons strength How should a team work to do there best

Teams in the real world Depend on the organization of the company Usually matrix organisation  Project group with people representing different department  Persons often involved in more than one project  Line and project organization have different priorities  The members in the group has different ambitions

Different types of Project groups Bild: Project work Wenell Management AB

Teams in the real world cont Typical mistakes from a project manager  Thinks that you have to no it all  Thinks that every one has the same ambitions that you have  Thinks that every body is updated  Does not delegate  Does not check that tasks are don or checks to often that tasks are not don  Do not address problems at the right level of the organization

Teams in real wold Typical problems and mistakes by project members  Thinks that you have all information  Do others work but does not focus on your own task  Do not respect times for meetings deadlines etc  Do not object to suggestions at the meeting but do complain after wards  Do not document what you have don in a way so that others understand it

Next time you meet me Remember your task I want the written reflection by Friday I will talk more about groups and about risk management I will talk about literature search and library recourses
