There can be many different names for such a document in this instance it is a team charter. The team charter is an excellent way to ensure that every team member is treated fairly and does his/her share. In constructing a team charter for Learning Team C (three individuals) not every member had input. For sake of this analysis the individuals in Team C will be Member 1, Member 2, and Member 3. The communication was not clear in the beginning. Member 1 did not have any input in the comprising the Member 1 is a procrastinator and unorganized. Once Member 2 and 3 did have contact with Member 1, the member was combative and annoyed that the charter was completed without the member. The member’s personality indicated that he/she cannot be trusted to complete assignments in a timely manner. Although, Member 1 was very vocal after the fact, the member does not have a dominant personality. The member can be easily led. Having the Learning Team Charter will be most helpful in this instance; not only for Member 1 but also for Members 2 and 3. The charter will set standards. The Learning Charter will place each member on common ground (hopefully in the future) to work toward the common goal. The charter will be effective in minimizing miscommunication amongst the team. The rules will help strengthen the trust level amongst the team. Also, with a team charter it will cut down on the procrastination and allows all members to sufficient contribution to all projects. According, to Team C’s charter every member’s input will be accepted but, lack of participation will be address in a professional manner. With the Charter in place every member will know what is expected of him/her and must adhere to the regulations. Member 1 may have a problem with this. Members 2 and 3 have similar personalities and approaches to team efforts that Member 1 has not displayed; neither Members 2 nor 3 had any real interactions with Member 1. Both Member 2 and 3 listen and communicated well with each other. When communicating with Member 1, the member proceeded to out talk and not fully listen to what the other members tried to convey. Members 2 and 3 proceeded with the charter with open minds and consideration of Member 1. The charter is an excellent way to protect all members and gives an even distribution of fairness to each team member. It might be observed as completely not fair to all members however for the incident that occurred the charter can and will guarantee that all aspect of team projects are justly dispersed.
