TEAMWORK AS A FOUNDATION OF INTERPERSONAL RELATIONS IN THE ORGANIZATION

Timom nazivamo manju skupinu ljudi koja dijeli posebna znanja i tehnike rada, te zajedno obavljaju posao kako bi uspješno obavili zajednički zadatak za koji su zajedno, ali i individualno zaslužni. Svrha formiranja tima je obavljanje zadatka u što kraćem vremenskom roku. Za kvalitetan timski rad potreban je dobro formiran tim. Timski rad je sastavnica života mnogih ljudi, a timovi su svuda oko nas. Svi smo bili članovi tima, možda čak i više njih u istom periodu. Timski rad je postao stil rada i oblik sekundarne organizacijske strukture. U današnje vrijeme nije moguće zamisliti organizaciju rada koja se temelji na individualnim poslovima djelatnika. Menadžeri se sve više zalažu da maksimalno iskoriste znanja zaposlenika koji postaju članovi tima. Takav oblik rada je najbolji način rada i smatra se da će biti prevladavajući oblik rada u budućnosti. Bitno je da među članovima vlada poštovanje, dobra komunikacija, dijeljenje informacija i dobri međuljudski odnosi. Kako bi tim bio uspješan mora imati svog voditelja. Osoba koja vodi tim mora imati dobre komunikacijske vještine, usmjeravati tim, dodijeliti uloge ostalim članovima te prepoznati individualne kvalitete članova. Sa svim članovima mora surađivati i na taj način obavljati zadatke uz što veću produktivnost i dolazak do cilja u što kraćem vremenskom roku. Poželjne karakteristike tima su: ravnoteža uloga, iskrenost, jasno definirani ciljevi, razrješavanje sukoba i donošenje zajedničkih odluka. Prednost timskog rada je u tome što tim okuplja osobe sa različitim stupnjevima znanja, sposobnostima i karakteristikama, te znaju kako riješiti veći broj problema u kriznim situacijama.A team is a small group of people who share special knowledge and work techniques, and work together to successfully complete a common task for which they are together, but also individually responsible. The purpose of forming a team is to perform the task in the shortest possible time. A well-formed team is needed for quality team work. Teamwork is an integral part of many people’s lives, and teams are all around us. We were all members of the team, maybe even more of them in the same period. Teamwork has become a style of work and a form of secondary organizational structure. Nowadays, it is not possible to imagine a work organization based on the individual jobs of employees. Managers are increasingly committed to making the most of the knowledge of employees who become team members. This form of work is the best way to work and is considered to be the predominant form of work in the future. It is important that there is respect, good communication, information sharing and good interpersonal relationships among the members. In order for a team to be successful it must have its own leader. The person leading the team must have good communication skills, guide the team, assign roles to other members, and recognize the individual qualities of the members. He must cooperate with all members and thus perform tasks with the highest possible productivity and reach the goal in the shortest possible time. Desirable characteristics of the team are: balance of roles, honesty, clearly defined goals, conflict resolution and joint decision making. The advantage of teamwork is that the team brings together people with different levels of knowledge, abilities and characteristics, and know how to solve a number of problems in crisis situations
