One aspect of good team management is understanding the different roles needed in a team -- to ensure timely completion of work, good quality work, and fair and smooth team functioning while completing that timely, high quality work. Here are some roles you might consider using in your team.
Project Roles (roles that contribute to the completion of the task)
Facilitator initiates discussion in meetings and facilitates meetings for a smooth, efficient meeting
(aka let's not be here all night)
Functional Specialist organizes a sub-task for the team, such as the Contexts section, etc.
Meeting Organizer writes agenda for and informs members of meetings
Notetaker records and distributes notes
Website Organizer oversees design of website
Proofreader proofreads individual and team work and returns to author for revisions
If team members perform any of these roles, please report that work to me in your end-of-project review. We want to make sure people get credit for the work they contribute to the project.
