Job Satisfaction and Requirements

If I were responsible for formulating a team charter, there are several points of pertinent information I would make sure are included in it. One of the most important of these is the form of communication to be used by the team members, as well as the regularity of that communication. The team should meet comprehensively a minimum of two to three times a week. These meetings are to monitor progress and deal with any issues as they arise. The frequency of these meetings and the various points of checking for progress and any problems would help to prevent social loafing. In fact, preventing that phenomenon is one of the chief goals of this part of the charter. Most teams do not meet frequently enough; the aforementioned charter can change that.

Politics is the contention of power; power is merely a thing unto itself. The main way that I see expert power utilized is in the writing of various articles related to information technology, where the author has the ability to sway with his expertise (Mohn, 2015) in the subject.
