Group project overview

Good afternoon, today story will talk about current group project which helps me to learn something about managing and working as group. First of all, being a master student, we suppose to be able to communicate and work as group, since in a reality, as an individual we have to work together to finish the task or project. The task is not easy because we suppose to do research and find out the solution that relates to the problem that has given to us. Well, the group usually contain of 5-6 people which is good number to talk and discuss about the project. However, if the group is too much member, it might affect the efficiency and productivity of the group, because, if people cannot manage the team properly, all members might not be able to maximise their potential. Being a student that already joined several group projects, i have opinion and views since the beginning our group formed. 

There is several reason that group could go well, first, they have a good leader, that can manage and communicate with all group member. Next, the group has a member that could be listener and give the opinion or value to the team, however, the leader has to be able manage and give the direction the members to help them find out the way. However, a leader also retired the ability to listen the opinion from its members to get the more knowledge to take further actions. The third reason, all group members has to attend the group meeting to understand and listen other members opinion. The problem of group work usually related to misunderstanding and small knowledge about the project. So, if the members come and participate in group meeting, they might get the points and know how to resolve the problem. However, it relates to a leader manage their team and listen group voices or opinions. Even though, it is not uneasy task, but leader has to be a good listener to get the point and all group objectives or voices. 

In short, working as group is depended on the leader itself. Even though, some people is smart, sometime they cannot work as group because they cannot working together. So leader is most important part in the team and being a good member also takes crucial point in this project. Please being a nice people in the group to get maximise your potential and value. 

Thanks!!!
