SayPro Task roles

Once a team knows what its goals are, the various tasks needed to succeed can be identified and assigned to group members.

The more clearly the task roles are defined, the better the chosen team member will be able to perform the task. If a task role is too narrowly defined, however, the team may miss out on the opportunity to capitalize on the skills and talents of that team member.

When a team has the right mix of tasks that are well differentiated and integrated, group members develop a sense of cohesion and team spirit, and each can see where their particular role fits with the objectives of the group as a whole.

Some of the tasks a member may need to do include:

o developing an understanding of particular technical knowledge

o obtaining references and taking notes

o doing calculations

o analysing data

o devising graphs and tables

o preparing designs

o building a prototype

o writing sections of reports

o preparing presentations
