Paper instructions:
Denhardt, Denhardt, and Aristigueta (2013, p. 339) write that “To effectively build, lead, or participate in a team, one must understand the stages of development that teams undergo in coming together and carrying out their assigned responsibilities. Interestingly, there are certain fairly predictable stages in the development of teams…” In this Assignment, you will evaluate how leaders facilitate effective teamwork throughout the team life cycle. You will conduct your evaluate within the context of the four primary styles of team players.

For this task, use the provided worksheet template. You will complete the worksheet and answer one short question at the bottom of the page.

The four key components of the worksheet are highlighted below:

Lifecycle Stage: Column 1 lists the four stages highlighted in the book. This column is completed for you.

Characteristics: In the second column, you will need to read the relevant sections of the book and summarize the key characteristics and traits of each stage. This should be done in bullet points and you should have 4–5 bullet points per stage.

Team Player Style: This column is pre-populated with one of the four team player styles outlined in the text. You will use the information provided in this column to fill out the “Skills of facilitation” section.

“Skills of Facilitation:” In the final column, you must provide a game plan for how you will lead, encourage, and motivate the team player listed in column three. Note that your analysis must also be within the context of a specific stage. For example, you will evaluate how to work with the “Challenger” style during the forming stage. You should have three bullet points listing specific strategies that you can implement for each listed style. The material on pages 339–343 of the text can be helpful in providing ideas. You may also want to look at the “Ways of Acting” section at the end of the chapter.

Lastly, below the worksheet is a short answer question. Make sure you fully answer the question (4–5 sentences) and provide a web link at the bottom of your answer. You will need to do some outside web research to answer this question. Your web link should be cited in APA format.
