Impact Of Teamwork on Employees Productivity & Organization

ABSTRACT

Teamwork is an important component of the effective functioning of any
organisation. To value the importance of teamwork, we have to appreciate
the value of every individual. Many managers think that they
are good team players. When they get into action, they begin
to “take charge” of the whole process and dictate their beliefs.
They are deaf to other people's inputs and suggestions.
Sometimes, they may ask for ideas from the members and
appear receptive. At the back of their minds, they have already
decided that their own ideas are supreme and all other ideas
must necessarily be inferior. Such managers are usually guilty
of casting blame on the team when things go wrong, and
accepting personal credit when things go right. A good team is not formed
overnight. Putting a bunch of your
best workers together and making them play some teambuilding
games at a corporate retreat will not get you an effective team.

I conducted a research in English Biscuit Manufacturers (pvt) Ltd, IQRA
UNIVERSITY, and in small business firms. This Research Elaborates about the
relationship between the Teamwork and its impact on employees' productivity
or on the performance of the organization .The sample has been taken on the
convenience sampling method and the 20 respondents were selected and then
evaluated on the basis of the questionnaire given to them.


INTRODUCTION
A team can be described as a group of people who work together to achieve the same
goals and objectives for the good of the service users and organisations in order to
deliver a good quality of service. Team building and planning events and activities
have the potential to bring the people you employ a strong sense of direction, workable
plans and solutions, a powerful feeling of belonging with and on the team and clear,
strategic customer-focused values. Poorly planned and executed, created outside of the
context of the total organization, the team building and planning sessions bring
disillusionment, low morale and negative motivation. They fail to deliver the results
expected. Organizations flounder with little strategic direction. Everyone works hard,
but, usually on the wrong tasks and goals. Employees take baby steps toward
accomplishing key action items and nothing important is finished.

Team work is the ability to work together towards a common vision. It is a fuel that
allows common people to attain uncommon results. Collective action is widely
recognized as a positive force for teamwork in any organization or institution to
succeed. Teams enable individuals to empower themselves and to increase benefits
from cooperative work engaged on as a group. Getting together with others also can
allow individuals to better understand the importance of teamwork and how the
organization operate as well as promote the culture of teamwork success. Without
teamwork houses take long to build, government collapse and companies are out
shined by their competitors in the market and lastly without teamwork people lose
their inspiration. According to Wageman (1997:49) “company’s teamwork is the only
way anything gets accomplished with quality and efficiency and a major reason why
economic growth is under control and company’s success is scrutinized by top
management to achieve the desired goals”. To gain competitive advantage companies
have to encourage teamwork because its base where new ideas come from. To
employees teamwork is seen as constituting a larger group of people than what job
position describes. The essence of teamwork is that workload is reduced and broken
into pieces of work for everyone to take part


STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
The increasing trend of the productive workforce in this era, the Impact of Teamwork
influences the whole structure of a firm. Pakistani organizational culture lacks the
knowledge about the relation of Teamwork and knowledge to achieve best results.
And therefore many local companies in Pakistan lack employees’ motivation. I want to
see what the problem in context of Pakistan is. What is impact of Teamwork on
productivity of employees and overall performance of an Organization? How an
?organization keeps its spirit of employees high? How to build teamwork

OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSE OF STUDY
This research will subsequently help us know how to evaluate ourselves as team and
learn to be more productive towards Organizational objectives. The members of the
team will understand to promote partnership and work together to ensure that the team
members and more importantly the service users are receiving the best quality of
service. It will allow ordinary people to achieve extraordinary results.

I have adopted survey design for this research. Random sampling procedure was
followed throughout the research.

INSTRUMENTS:
A simple questionnaire was sent to all of my respondents through email.

• Ms Excel and Ms Word

PROBLEMS:
I didn't have to face much problem in acquiring data since my research was limited to
few individuals and they were acquainted to me.

INTERPRETATION OF DATA/ CONCLUSIONS
The first results include all three variables specifically hypothesized to impact firm use of
Teamwork in firm. The level of agreement estimates Teamwork leading to productivity is
positive and significant, Therefore the hypothesis has and positive relation with the firm
.performance and proved

SUGGESTION/RECOMMENDATIONS
A Team can be developed effectively by using the process of “Team Building”. Team
Building is an effort in which a team studies it’s own process of working together.


Member’s energies are directed towards problem solving, task effectiveness and
achieving the team’s goals.

Integrative Group Process
• Have agenda and timekeeper

• Select the best, even if they disagree

• Meet before the meeting

• Vote before discussion

• Talk through differences

• Document group’s decision

• Avoid arguing,

• Avoid win-lose statements,

• Avoid changing opinions in order to reduce conflict,

• Avoid conflict-reducing techniques such as majority votes and bargaining.
• View differences of opinion as natural and initial agreements as suspect

CONCLUSION
An evaluation of my findings include the following

A team can be described as a group of people who work together to achieve the same
goals and objectives for the good of the service users and organisations in order to
deliver a good quality of service. Within my own organisation I would say that my
manager would be the Democrat leader, he makes decision and consults us all as team
members, he delegates and encourages us all to participate in things such as group
sessions, morning budget meetings, and support sessions. He is fully aware however of
his role as leader and therefore takes full responsibility for his role. The culture I feel
that exists in my organisation is that all employees and service users are valued and
respected, I t could also be said that it’s a combination of all cultures previously


mentioned and the main aim of my organisation is to help our service users to obtain
their own tenancy and back into the community.

Key to successful teams is ensuring each team player honestly understand the goal,
objective, outcomes desired, in terms they understand.

- Since working as part of a team can improve learning and is a much needed skill in
today’s workplace, some team exercises should be included in the classroom.

In conclusion, my over all analysis strongly supports the hypothesis. Because
Teamwork leads to organizational growth and improvement and people make the
critical difference between success and failure. The effectiveness, with which firm
manage, develop, motivate, involve and engage the willing contribution of the people
who work in them is a key determinant of how well those firms perform
