  Developing Your Team

  Your name here

  Strayer University

  Introduction

  In this section you will introduce what your paper is about. Start by thinking about the

  Question(s) you are trying to answer. You may want to provide information about the

  company you are going to be managing. Talk about management, and why developing your team

  is important. Your topic sentence should be included in here. Have a good introductory

  paragraph introducing your paper.

  How to create a diverse team with different strengths

  Here you will discuss the unique strengths of each team member. A way to do this is by

  identifying some of your employees unique gifts and managing around around those skills. Once

  you identify the strengths, you may want to discuss the benefits of focusing on employees

  strengths. You can also talk about what happens when employees are aware of their strengths.

  For example, employees productivity level increases when they are aware of their strengths. Yu

  can also discuss what happens when employees strengths are not recognized. Make sure you

  describe a scenario to help support what you are saying.

  Talk about this section on this entire page to cover one page.

  Methods to improve team dynamics and employee behaviors

  In this section you can start off by talking about what team dynamics is, then go into

  discussing why a positive team dynamic is important. Once you do that you can discuss the

  outcome of having a positive team dynamic. For example, when there is a positive team

  dynamic employees seem to be more productive, creative, and are willing to work hard to get the

  job done. Identify some of the behaviors you may see at a work place, then discuss different

  ways to improve employee behavior. This can be hard to do when people are set in their own

  ways, but as leadership you must be able to come up with different ways to help improve the

  culture (behaviors) at the workplace. Methods are procedures, approaches, and steps to help

  improve something, which for this assignment it is improving team dynamics and employees

  behavior.

  Remember to cite and reference anything you use that is not your own. See SWS. Talk about this entire section on this page to make it two full pages.

  Two management techniques aligned to company’s mission

  In this section you can begin talking about a company’s mission and it’s importance. If

  employees don’t know the company mission statement, how do you expect for employees to do

  their job the right way. The mission of a company is why they exist in the first place. Therefore,

  you are to find two strategies, techniques, or ways to get employees to buy-in to the company’s

  mission. Remember a company’s success is based upon vsion, clear mission, and it’s strong

  values. For example, being able to effectively communicate with employees and/or one another

  will push employees to work toward success. This is a method to align employee’s with the

  company’s mission.

  Remember to talk about this whole section here to cover three full pages. Cite and reference any outside information you bring into your paper. See SWS.

  Conclusion

  Here is where you will wrap everything up that you have in your paper. A summary of

  what you have discussed. A sentence letting me know what you have discussed to

  accomplish what was expected for this assignment. In other words, tell me what you have said in

  your paper but in a paragraph.

  This is important to have for any assignment.

  This template is for you to use and follow for assignment two and three. Delete what I have under each header after you have discussed each section. This is only for you to get a headstart. It is a good idea to use headers like I have here on each page to help you focus on what the question is asking. It will help me pull out information to give you the most possible points. If you follow this you wll have 3 full pages, but don’t limit yourself, you can add more.

  I hope you find this helpful!
