- This is similar to the problem solving exercises. It tests the team’s ability to make decisions together. In these exercises, the whole team is supposed to work together. It does not fall to the leader to come up with the next plan of action. When a team makes good strong decisions together, they will be successful. However, a team that doesn’t involve all members in decision making may end up fostering resentment from the members who have been left out. At Google someone on the team has the responsibility to keep track of who is taking part in the
discussion and the meeting cannot come to a close until everyone has been heard from. It will also affect the quality of the decision since the best ones are the ones that are made by all members sharing ideas. On the other hand, total inability to make decisions will delay projects and can ultimately contribute to the failure of the whole team.
So in these exercises, a team may be presented with a problem and about five different solution alternatives. They have to discuss these alternatives and decide on the best option for the whole team. Each group member should contribute as to why they believe that is the best option. They should also get to a point of either compromise or total agreement.
