Before anyone can lead a team, he or she must be able to lead themselves. This same mindset applies to efficacy. Self-efficacy must come first. Combining each individuals efficacy creates a synergistic effect with collective efficacy being more powerful than the sum. Unfortunately, if the star player is out of their league, then there can be a false sense of collective efficacy. In those situations, the collective efficacy could be equal to or slightly greater than the star player’s self-efficacy
Lab Reflections 1 I was somewhat surprised by the results of my Ideal Team Player Self-Assessment. I found that I need some work in the areas of Humility and Smart. When talking with my team, I realized that we were each rating ourselves harsh on the self-assessment. We discussed that part of this is because many of our answers are situational based. My team discussed how a three on the scale seemed to be the best score while a one or a two seemed to be lacking quite a bit. We didn’t want to
I mean, sure, I got straight A’s. I was voted most improved player on the tennis team. But, truthfully, the school year felt like a movie being played on the fast forward setting. Occasionally pausing or slowing down, but mostly picking up speed until you blinked and you just missed a large portion of the year. They say time
I’m naturally exceptionally athletic, and, as such, have always been one of the top players on my soccer team. I never felt challenged to be better, or try harder, because I was good enough without having to put in much effort. Then, I was put on JV soccer my freshman year. Though crushing at the time, it made me realize that I needed to push myself harder. Going into high school, I was nervous, but fairly confident that I would make varsity. That is, until I went to try outs and saw that my coach
Person into a Team Player It’s almost impossible to avoid group projects or team activities in today’s society. Most people have been a part of a team. Nearly everyone has had to complete a group project for a class. Now within these situations, many have experienced one person in the group that did not contribute to the project or team and there was another person who took over the entire project and wanted to do everything on the team.

The governing wisdom in baseball is that the teams with the best players win the most games. Since the best players cost the most money, and only the wealthiest teams can afford the best players, the wealthier teams always win. Not exactly. This wisdom fails to answer why teams with the less talented players often achieve great success and the teams with the most talent fail to consistently achieve success. For small market teams such as the Oakland A’s with low payrolls, this paradox represented
ME: Is being a good team player important to you? HIM: I believe being a team player involves acting in the best interest of the company, while maintaining a stake in your own best interest and career. But in the fast-paced world of Information Technology and Managed Services being a team player is crucial for many reasons.

makes a good follower. As leadership and followership mirror one another, looking at the parallels between the two may help to answer this question. Leaders are meant to lead teams in an ethical manner in order to realize a vision for the company. Therefore, in order to support the leader, followers must be able to work in a team and help actualize the leader 's vision in an ethical manner.

Lessons Learned I learned the definition of team and team work in the process of making group presentation for assignments. A team is defined as a group of people with a set of complementary skills required to finish or complete a job, task, or project. Team work is the ability to work together towards a common vison or a goal. The capability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. In my word, I say that teamwork acts as a fuel that allows common people to achieve uncommon
