ASSESSMENT OF TEAMWORK'S IMPACT ON ORGANIZATIONAL PRODUCTIVITY

ASSESSMENT OF TEAMWORK'S IMPACT ON ORGANIZATIONAL PRODUCTIVITY

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Teamwork is frequently expected in the workplace. Basic collaboration entails everyone working together to help the organization, but complicated types of teamwork may entail "work teams" selected to complete a project by working closely together. According to Mickan & Rodger (2020).Through joint and collaborative effort, teamwork increases productivity. Allowing team members to apply their specialized education and skills to a project or a work assignment, hence increasing the diversity of work the team may perform as well as the number of tasks accomplished without further study. It is true that several minds may occasionally outperform a single one (Okoh, 2006).

A team is a collection of individuals who work together to attain the same aims and objectives for the benefit of service consumers and organisations in order to provide high-quality service. Team building, event planning, and activities have the ability to provide your employees with a clear sense of direction, viable ideas and solutions, a strong sense of belonging with and on the team, and clear strategic customer-focused values. Poor team building and planning sessions lead to organisational disillusionment, low morale, and negative motivation. They fail to achieve the promised results. Organizations fail due to a lack of strategic direction. Everyone works hard, but most of the time on the wrong activities and goals. Employees take tiny steps toward completing critical action items, and nothing significant is completed (Froebel and Marchington 2015). Teamwork is the capacity to collaborate toward a common goal. Teamwork is a fuel that enables ordinary people to achieve extraordinary outcomes. Collective action is universally acknowledged as a beneficial factor for collaboration and success in any company or institution. Teams enable individuals to empower themselves and maximise the benefits of group cooperative work. Meeting with others may also help individuals better grasp the value of cooperation and how organisations work, as well as build a culture of collaborative success. Without collaboration, houses take longer to build, governments fail, and businesses are outperformed by competitors in the market, and finally, individuals lose their motivation (Husain, 2011). According to Ingram (2019), "business cooperation is the only method to accomplish anything with quality and efficiency, and it is a significant reason why economic growth is under control and corporate performance is evaluated by top management to reach the intended goals." According to McShone (1998), teams are replacing people as the essential building blocks of organisations - French language television shows are shifting to team-based initiatives and providing more respect to teams rather than individuals. Companies are searching for employees who can work in teams and solve challenges, not only those with technical skills. Teams and collaboration, according to Steiner (1972), are not new notions; teams and team thinking have been present for years at organizations such as Procter & Gamble and Botany. When American corporations retooled to compete with Japanese competitors who were rapidly gaining market share in the 1980s, the manufacturing and auto sectors embraced a new team-oriented strategy. Brown et al. (1996) investigated how managers uncovered a huge body of research demonstrating that teams can be greater than the traditional corporate structure for making rapid and efficient choices. He went on to say that teams are required for future restructuring and reengineering processes, citing examples where basic adjustments such as encouraging input and feedback from workers on the front lines result in tremendous benefits. God used the notion of collaboration from the beginning of time when he declared, "Let us build man in our image" (Genesis1:26, KJV). This remark emphasizes the fact that God collaborated with other celestial creatures during the four creation processes, thereby emphasizing the need of teamwork in creating production, 'Man.' As a result, in order to achieve a competitive edge, businesses must foster cooperation because it is the source of new ideas. Employees perceive teamwork to be a wider group of individuals than the job role indicates. Katgry (2016) assert that the core of teamwork is that burden is decreased and divided into parts of work in which everyone may participate. Backward development in companies today may be ascribed to insufficient collaboration among employees, which in turn impacts the organization's success in the long run. Huge amount of money is also lost due to teamwork inadequacies which to say the least, drains the organization’s meager resources with its far-reaching and attendant consequences on the development of the organization.
