Senior Management Teams: Member Roles and Team Effectiveness within Large Hospitality Organisations

Zammit, Kathryn (2006) Senior Management Teams: Member Roles and Team Effectiveness within Large Hospitality Organisations. Research Master thesis, Victoria University.

Abstract

Over the years many scholars have undertaken extensive research to demonstrate the necessary qualities needed by a manager to achieve success (Proehl, 1997). These studies have identified principles such as academic qualifications, industrial experience and personal achievements as the common tools contributing to managerial success. As the dynamics of doing business has evolved, organisations today are forming work teams as a new approach in working towards the achievement of goals. Teamwork has emerged as a new managerial concept as individuals can not possibly carry out the broad range of skills and functions needed for managerial success. Therefore, a team of individuals can be more effective than an individual due to their combination of strengths in varying roles (Proehl, 1997).
