TEAM
A team in place when two or more people interact interdependently and energetically and shared a common and valued goal, objective or mission.
For exp: Cricket team etc
CHARACTERISTICS OF TEAMS
Groups(Classrooms):age, speclization, geographical location etc
Teams(business team):skills, competency etc Teams don’t have to be permanent. Team members do not have to be in the
same geographical location.
Many organization are structured around teams, including:
Autonomous work groups(Involving the working team to decide for itself how the work should be carried out, and distributed among members).
Process teams(people that work together each day to make sure one or processes are executed to meet the needs organization).
Self managing teams(advanced form of a process team).
WHY ARE TEAMS SO POPULAR?
Increasing global competition Greater flexibility for the organization during
downsizing i.e. Teams facilitate employee involvement.
Complex products and services Teams are more flexible and responsive to
changes in the environment i.e. Teams typically outperform individuals.
TEAM PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
Layer of complexity
Guiding principles:-
Focus on task or requirements of organization
Designed well and organizational framework supports team performance.
Performance focuses on team process.
CLASSIFICATION OF TEAMS Complexity of task Routine Non-routine
Tasks are well defined
Outcomes are easily assessed
Tasks are not defined well
Outcomes are usually very long and difficult to assess
CONT.. Membership configuration It includes:
Static and dynamic i.e. how long the team is expected to work and stability of its membership.
TYPES OF TEAM & IMPLICATIONS PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
Work or Service Team: Engaged in routine tasks and static. For example: Group of people (Team) working in assembly line manufacturing a car.
Performance management by Peer Rating. Project Teams: Assembled for a specific purpose
and disband as soon as specific tasks are completed. For example: film production Team
Performance management Periodically as team works on the project.
Network Teams: Members are geographically dispersed and stay in touch via telecommunication technology. For example: Google teams
Performance management emphasizes on Future.

PURPOSE & CHALLENGES OF TEAM PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
How do we assess relative individual contribution?
How do we balance individual and team performance?
How do we identify individual and team measures of performance?
TEAM PERFORMANCE IN THE PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Six basic principles: Make sure your team is really a team Make investment to measure Define measurement goals clearly Use a multi-method approach to
measurement Focus on process as well as outcomes Measure long-term changes
SIX BASIC COMPONENTS OF PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Prerequisites Performance Planning Performance Execution Performance Assessment Performance Review Performance Renewal & Recontracting
PREREQUISITES
involves two prerequisites First, need to have good knowledge if the
organization’s mission Second, need to have good knowledge of the job
in question (KSAs)
KSAS HELPFUL TO TEAM PERFORMANCE
Communication Decision Making Collaboration Team Leadership Self-control
PERFORMANCE PLANNING includes the consideration of results and behavior Result must include Key team accountabilities Specific objectives for each accountabilities Performance standards Behavior needs must include Competencies involves the creation of a developmental plan Developmental plan includes Description of areas that need improving and
goals to be achieved in each area.
PERFORMANCE EXECUTION Autonomous teams are solely responsible When a team has a supervisor… Need to be committed to goal achievement Should take proactive role in seeking feedback Teams have to communicate openly and regularly
with its supervisor Teams members are being prepared for the
performance review---peer appraisals Team have solid information regarding their
performance
CONT:
Supervisor responsibilities; - observing and documentation - updating the team on any changes in the
goals of the organization - providing resources - reinforcement
PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT Evaluate one another’s performance as well as overall team
performance Peer evaluations are key component because it lead to - higher levels of workload sharing - cooperation - performance - team coordination - improve feedback - recognition of errors - most valuable performer Members of other teams can also evaluate if they have
firsthand experience Self-appraisals provide important information
CONT:
Three types of performance need to be assessed:
1. individual performance or task performance 2. Individual performance or contextual
performance 3. Team performance as a whole Includes both task and contextual
performance ( me & we)
CONT: Team as a whole measured by using four performance dimensions:
1. Effectiveness: include measures of quality, quantity, cost, and time.
2. Efficiency: include measures of communication, coordination, collaboration and decision making.
3. Learning & Growth: include innovation, documented learning, best practices and process improvements.
4. Team member satisfaction: include team members perceptions
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Take place when team members meet with the supervisor or manager to discuss how they have been working.
Two meetings are needed; - First, the supervisor meets with all
members of the team together - Second, the supervisor meets each team
member individually
CONT:
Both meetings emphasize the past- performance during review period the present- any changes in compensation
depending on results obtained the future- about goals and development
plans will be expected to achieve
PERFORMANCE RENEWAL AND RECONTRACTING
Uses information gathered during the review period to make adjustments as needed. E.g: new key accountabilities and competencies, some goals adjusted adjustment.
REWARDING TEAM PERFORMANCE
If the performance management system includes the measurement of individual`s contribution to team performance ,it also need the reward these types of performance i.e. The allocation of reward in the system including a team component are the same as those for the individuals.
