It\u2019s no secret that teamwork plays an imperative role in the success of project management. You rarely associate one without the other, so let\u2019s figure out why.<\/p>\n

The Importance of Teamwork<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Teamwork<\/a> can be best defined as \u201cthe process of working collaboratively with a group in order to achieve a goal.\u201d It is about gathering together a group of individuals from different backgrounds in hopes that their collective talents, skills, and experiences will provide a more efficient and successful outcome.<\/p>\n

A crucial aspect of any workplace, not only does successful teamwork benefit the group as a whole, but it can also enhance personal development for the individuals involved. Essential attributes of teamwork such as communication, commitment, providing support, and sharing ideas and responsibility are exercised and reinforced when working on teamwork projects. Once the project has been accomplished, members of the team can walk away with their improved skills and apply them elsewhere in their work or even personal life.<\/p>\n

For teamwork to be achieved, there has to be great leadership<\/a> in command. Teamwork<\/a> can\u2019t work without someone guiding the group, ensuring that everyone knows their role, and is on the same page. A leader, who is also usually the project manager<\/a> as well, is also responsible for coordinating the activity amongst the group, as well as encouraging communication and collaboration.<\/p>\n

Teamwork in Project Management<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We all know that for teamwork projects to succeed, good project management needs to be implemented. While the practice of project management can be done solo, in order to achieve the plan\u2019s purpose, it can\u2019t happen without a team. Even after the initial project plans<\/a> have been created, and the project activity has started, the project manager, too, has to engage in teamwork to accomplish a successful delivery. (You can see how one cannot work without the other)<\/p>\n

The part that a project manager plays is that of a leader: to facilitate activity, delegate tasks<\/a>, instruct the team, offer support, and ensure communication and collaboration is on point.<\/p>\n\r\n
