How to get a team organized and started
In any team project, organization is required even before any work is done. The following should be accomplished in getting a team started.
1. Everyone should know what their job is and the ultimate goal. Each member should be well-informed on their duty and how it contributes to the ultimate goal. If one person is lacking in knowledge of what their task is, enlighten them so that everyone can get on track.
2. Make sure everyone is on the same page. You want to take things a little bit slow at first, so make sure that everyone on the team knows each other. If everyone needs to take turns introducing and saying things about themselves, then so be it.
3. Make sure everyone has a basic sense of trust with each other. Trust is very important, and if it isn't there, then no one will want to entrust others with assignments, which is crippling towards the overall success of the goal.
4. Make sure the work is distributed evenly. One person should not have to bear the weight of the entire project on their shoulders. In other words, from the start, make sure that everyone gets near-equal amounts of work. If work isn't distributed evenly from the start of the project, towards the end, one person might have to take on the burden of doing more work than they should.
5. If you have an idea, don't be afraid to speak up. That idea will most likely be beneficial to the team, so tell your teammates so they can comprehend it.
6. If you think someone needs to step up to get things going, be that someone. By asserting yourself as a leader, you not only sort of enforce the rules, but you also help out your teammates a lot. If you want to reach the goal, why not lead your team members to victory?
