Skills Assessment Paper and Matrix Table A skills assessment was performed on the newly formed consulting team. Team C members consist of Marzieh Cassidy, Rhonda O’Brien, Laura Gilge and Carina Torres. Team members worked together in indentifying their respective skills and developed a matrix table to understand the team strengths and weaknesses. To perform as a high performance team it was established strong core values will help guide attitudes and behaviors in improving the performance of team goals. In performing the skills assessment a diverse mix of skills were identified from creative thinking, communication and business management skills. The teams’ diversity of work experience provides individual perspective and knowledge in human resources management, accounting and information technology in non-profit, public and private industries. To perform harmoniously the group recognized the diversity of culture, ethnicity and social environment of this newly created high performance team. The skills assessment table categorized different skill sets in displaying a pictorial chart for ease of understanding. The team included a work, and volunteer experience summary to attach a relationship of how the skills were obtained.
