According to Mark Thomas, author of <EM><A href="http://www.questia.com/CM.qst?D=news20070920s" linkindex="4" set="yes">Mastering People Management</A></EM>, some teams fail because members don't "put team goals above (their own) self interest" or "participate fully in the team process." Other failures occur, says Yvonne S. Magee, in the <EM>Public Management</EM> article "<A target="_blank" href="http://www.questia.com/CM.qst?D=news20070920y" linkindex="5" set="yes">Teams: Avoiding the Pitfalls</A>," when personalities clash or some members fail to carry a fair share of the workload. How can you make sure your team works? Writing for <EM>Insider Reports</EM>, Chris Widener, says it's possible to "turn any lackluster team into an outstanding one." In the article "<A target="_blank" href="http://www.questia.com/CM.qst?D=news20070920z" linkindex="6" set="yes">Secrets of a Successful Team</A> ," he explains that communication is critical: "Watch a good basketball team. They are talking to each other all of the time." Widener suggests evaluating your team by asking such questions as "Do we understand our common goals and vision? Is (our) team committed to excellence? Does everyone on my team know their specific role? Do the individuals on our team regularly operate out of their strengths?</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/DD6657B4-2A5B-4228-83D0-23D8F30E8A07/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
