Credits
1.00
Team development is the most important team process, since team norms, cohesion, and trust are inextricably connected to and depend on it. Team development usually requires time but organizations can accelerate it through team building, which consists of formal activities, aiming to improve the development and functioning of a work team. This course introduces students to team-building activities and has a twofold purpose. First, the students will delve into the topic of team building; in particular, they will discuss the structure of the team development process, the content, and goals of team building activities, and will analyze a company case. Second, the students will be introduced to team-building projects using the visual arts in studio-based practice. Indeed, visual arts practice encourages creativity and innovation, thinking beyond conventional boundaries, exploration of new perspectives, and the design of novel solutions. In order to understand and be ready to use this tool, the students will complete two visual arts projects. This course will increase the students' theoretical knowledge of team dynamics as well as their level of analytical, teamwork, and communication skills.
