TEAM – BUILDING for YOUTH ORGANIZATION

Team Development

 Youth Organization
A Youth Org’n – is the collection of teams composed of young people. The
success of a youth org’n depends on the ability of the team to work together to
attain the commonly held objectives.

Team leaders must be concerned w/ developing more cohesive (unified) and


cooperative relations between members and the teams. The dev’t of effective teams
w/in the org’n will determine, to a large extent, the ability of the youth org’n to
attain its goals.

 Factors Contributing to Team Dev’t and Effectiveness

The dev’t of a team is based on the assumption that any team can work more
effectively if its members are familiar w/ the four (4) factors that contribute to team
dev’t and effectiveness.

The four factors are as ff:

1. Shared Goals and Objectives


The team must state its goals and objectives, w/c expresses the general
understanding of the role of the team in the total org’n.

2. Utilization of Resources
The team must use effectively all available resources at its disposal, w/c implies,
establishing an environment that allows indiv’l resources to be used. This means,
maximizing the use of team members requires full participation and self-regulation.

3. Trust and Conflict Resolution


The ability to openly recognize conflict and seek to resolve it through critical
discussion for the team’s success.

4. Shared Leadership
Indiv’ls will not function as a team if they are brought together simply to “rubber
stamp” decisions made by the team’s formal leader or others not in a team.
The dev’t and cohesion of a team occur only if there is a feeling of shared
leadership among all team members.
 Team Relationship and Management

1. A Team is a number of persons associated together in work or activity. It is


formed in a coordinated ensemble (group), marked by devotion to teamwork
rather than indiv’l achievement.

2. In their relationship in an org’n or movement, members have various


expectations w/ each other. These expectations sometimes are not stated or
merely implied. An org’n may move along, but friction (resistance) often begins
to build up between people. Oftentimes, it is because people have diff
expectations of others and of themselves in doing a particular task.

3. The manag’t of the org’n depends on proper coordination that enable (allow/
empower) people to reach their own goals, transform their situation, and take
their destiny into their own hands.

 Building a Better Team

Here are the three (3) ff aspects necessary for bldg. a better team:

1. Teamwork reflects “Camaraderie” (friendship/solidarity)


A team will not efficiently work if members are self-centered and
if they do not know each other.

2. Teamwork reflects “Unity”


It is the team that works towards the outcome of the project
whatever it is. The team is no longer a single stick, but a bundle of sticks
w/c is strong and is hard to break.

3. Teamwork divides the “effort” and multiplies the “success”


Each group has ample (plenty/sufficient) zest
(enthusiasm/eagerness/ keenness/willingness) and inspiration to become
a dream team.
