CROSSING THE VALLEY :



About Team Work:

The process of working collaboratively with a group of people in order to achieve a goal.
Teamwork is often a crucial part of a business, as it is often necessary for colleagues to work well together, trying their best in any circumstance. Teamwork means that people will try to cooperate, using their individual skills and providing constructive feedback, despite any personal conflict between individuals.

                          


Valley crossing is a task the amount of trust, team work and communication between the team. The task it to cross a valley , there are 3 people who have  to cross valley with the help of stick .The job for every 3 of them is to cross the valley safely. The distance between the cliffs is more than 1 step and less than 2 steps. Hence this will ensure that every person is in the air( in danger) once. The team has to make sure that they reach the other end safely.

                                                 

Lessons Learnt from the Activity:
This activity has a lot of lessons of management

·         Working in a Team
The activity requires the three people to be in absolute sync with each other, and work towards a common self-less goal. The situation is similar to that of an organization is a group of people and if it has to reach heights it requires sincere and coordinated effort among all employees, management, owners and others like suppliers.

·         Co-ordination Within a Team
Every step in this activity should be planned out well in advance, theorized and perfected before the actual work can start. One mistake and the lives of three people can be in danger.

·         Importance of Leadership
Of the three people involved in the activity, not all might be able to look at the task with the same eye. It might be daunting to a one (mostly a newbie) and yet another day at work for some one other person. This is where I believe that the role of a leader comes into place. The leader can emerge within the three people or we might have a new leader altogether. But this definitely needs a leader who can drive the team to success. Co-ordinate them, encourage them, review the plan and do everything possible to re-assure his team members
