THE NATURE AND ROLES OF TEAM BUILDING IN CORPORATE ACHIEVEMENTS

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1     BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

It is highly imperative to understand every concept behind the schedule of responsibilities the discharge of the responsibilities and the responsible factors that will aid the proper execution of an objective decision. However, business in Nigeria, corporate, private, corporations, entrepreneurs have fell short of their expectation. In this wise it is very important to look into causes of their problem.Besides, Team building has been the most neglected relevant tool towards achieving the corporate organization objective. Thus, in Nigeria of today the kind of practices they adopt does not allow the spirit of team work to prevail. For any organization to achieve its corporate objective team work is of great concern.Moreso, building a high performing team is about leadership. Therefore, leadership in today’s business world has never been as important and challenging as currently experienced.

The dynamic nature of business practice and environment has challenged greatly the way things are done in the business world. The strategies and structure that worked in period of stability have failed in this era of rapid change. Although, this calls for a rethink. Thus, new strategies, structures and systems demand new styles of leadership. Leadership today requires leader who are able to  tap into the resources of the group that is, leadership who can release the initiative and leadership in everyone. (Maxwell, 1977). Furthermore, as a practicing entrepreneur, if you truly desire to build an effective team or become a master mechanic of team effectiveness you must understand what lies under the hood of a highly effective team. Hence, one need to appreciate that they live in an era of change and that competitive advantage will be determined by an organisation ability consistently deliver quality, service and value. Thus, the organisation must do what it does better, faster, cheaper and with fewer resources.

Based on available evidence, Macmillan (2011), concluded that, every member of the organisation must be involved in getting the organizationship to the destination and safety anchored at the port. Although, attempt here is to spread the stress of change and create a structure with speed, flexibility, and collective competence that would survive and win in today’s tough business environment. The assumption is that there is a leader in every person. The team structure provides a medium for the expression of the function expertise of the team members. In a nutshell, it is expected of the team leader to find and facilitate the collective element of leadership within the team.

This could be reflected when they introduced some product in the past and such product could not see the light of the day. But the New Bank PHB have been able to understand the concept behind the team work, recently a sponsored program by Bank PHB tagged apprentice African have reflected that it is highly important to work as a team in other to achieve collective result and collectively be praised for such success.

i.  Time constraints: The time taken to travel in searching for information and relevant materials as well as writing of the project is a constraint.

ii. Financial constraint: To carry out this project successfully, huge amount is needed and to make a meaningful generalisation for a population. It is necessary that a relatively large sample should be studied to give remarkable representation of the entire population.

iii. Material constraints: To get materials for writing this project is constraint because more information is searching for in the library and internet (web site).
