    Wetlaufer, S. (1994), The team that wasn’t, Harvard Business Review, November –
    December, pp. 1 – 4. (Case study can be accessed on iLearn)
     
    Students must answer the question posed in the case study: “Why doesn’t this team
    work?”
    Students will succeed in answering the brief if they:
     identify a major problem (problems) presented in the case study
     discuss reasons for this problem (or these problems). Use relevant theories
    where appropriate.
    6
     discuss possible solutions to this problem (or these problems). Use relevant
    theories where appropriate.
     NB: students must note that it will not suffice to answer the question of why the
    team does not work by only identifying or pointing to (describing) apparent
    issues. Your analysis should explain why these issues are problematic and how
    can they be rectified (solutions).
    “Reflection on teamwork” brief:
    Reflection is about questioning one’s experiences in pursuit of learning and growing.
    In your reflective statement, the student should answer the following question:
     How can both your knowledge about and your experience of teamwork
    acquired during this course assist you in your current or future career?
    Aims and Objectives:
    This assessment targets the development of students’ analytical, problem-solving,
    research and reflective skills. This assessment expects students to:
     Answer the brief (the question posed in the case study and expectations
    articulated in the “case study brief” on pp. 5-6 of this Assessment Guide).
     Demonstrate an understanding of teamwork and the challenges and
    opportunities it presents for managers and team members.
     Demonstrate ability to find solutions to an identified problem.
     Reflect on their own experiences of teamwork.
