Classmate Post:
1) Do you think teamwork can have negative consequences?
There are many scenarios in which teamwork can make work, in general, challenging or even strongly negatively affect the workflow. We all can relate to this one example that we have experienced at some point in our educational journey. When people are assigned to work in a group, they tend to put most of the workload on other people because they will not be praised or evaluated on their individual contribution but on the group project. Because people are not evaluated on individual efforts, productivity might decrease due to the fact that some individuals do not help with the overall effort. If teams are getting along too well, they are also able to reduce their overall efficiency because it will cause them to be focused on other things. These teams would be more focused on being social than on being productive. Also, teams can suffer from poor communication, which can contribute to a low-performing team because team members are not communicating correctly. In a high-performing team, all team members will need to be informed of all the information they need to be effective. If it isn’t clear who is leading the team, there might be a struggle with power dynamics, which negatively affects the productivity of a team because there would be an internal conflict. Therefore, some of the capabilities will be used to try to resolve this conflict. This would make the team less productive because of the power dynamic issue. 
2) What can a leader do when a team lacks synergy and the collective whole is not greater than the  sum of individual parts?
As discussed in the last question, there can be numerous reasons why a team functions better when the individuals work by themselves rather than in a team.  For a team to function at its best, it is important that the common communication is highly functional and effective. This means that people can have honest and open conversations about the problems and solutions that are supposed to be handled by the team (Brigden, 2024). When the goal of a team is not specifically defined, it is unclear how the team will be able to achieve their teams’ goals. Therefore, creating a collaborative goal that can be accomplished by a team effort in the best and most efficient way possible is necessary to become a well-established and deficient team (Brigden, 2024).  All the team members will need to know what the goals of the team are because, without that, the team is not going to be an effective and efficient team (Brigden, 2024).  When a team is successful, it is important for the team to engage in a team effort celebration because this will make the team connect and show them that together, they can accomplish their goals and be successful (Brigden, 2024).  A team leader should engage in all these efforts so that he can facilitate a caring and efficient environment by creating an effective team that is going to, therefore, be more successful.

2) What can a leader do when a team lacks synergy and the collective whole is not greater than the  sum of individual parts?
There are a number of potential consequences of teamwork. Individuality for one, employees may feel like they are not heard or seen for their work. Also the team may have conflict if one member feels they are working harder than  another. There is also the possibility of personality differences and that causing conflict within the team. While teamwork has its place, there are several potential issues that arise from it as well. 
There are many things a leader can do to improve overall synergy. Firstly would be team building exercises and retreats. These are intentionally designed to help force teamwork and to learn of other’s strengths and weaknesses. Recognizing and rewarding team successes as a whole will help encourage the members to keep up the good work and boost morale. There are many ways to strengthen a team and how they work together, the leader will just need to find what works best for their team and their company.

The Signature Assignment for this class is worth a total of 300 points.  It is a writing-intensive project designed to give students who are interested in negotiation and conflict resolution the opportunity to polish their skills as a negotiator facing an intractable negotiation challenge.
This paper will be graded using Turnitin.  If, when you submit your paper, you receive a Turnitin score of 10% or greater, immediately open the Turnitin notes to see where your paper needs correcting.  If a paper has a score of more than 10% and extraordinary circumstances do not dictate otherwise, you will receive a zero for the assignment.
The first part of the project (value: 50 points) will be an exploration of a real, ongoing conflict, including substantial backgrounds on the parties involved, the nature of the conflict, and its significance.  The minimum length of this section is three pages, not including cover and reference pages. A minimum of three references is expected.
Every word of your Signature Assignment should be essential to conveying its overall message: do not over-explain ideas, use larger words when smaller ones will do, or add text only to help you bulk up the length of your paper.  You will have opportunities to strengthen the language of your paper in sections 2 and 3.
