Knowledge, skills, and experience
I would prefer our entire workers who work in our team are having a perfectly knowledge, skills, and experience; those are able to force the team, which can be successful on the processing in the team. Our team enables to have:
Knowledge:
- All of our team members need to understand how to mutual respect and accountability with each other.

- All of our subordinators can provide their own idea with each other as the basic knowledge of business during discussion.
- Integrate all opinions from employees make the best decision.
Skills:
Skill means that the ability of handling; our employees are creative, intelligent, independent, innovative and cooperation.
- Creation is providing more idea for company.
- Independent grows up their own idea to provide for company.
- Innovative creates suggestion and get correction done from learning mistake.
- Cooperation improves community with each other and mutual respect.
Experience:
- Our workers should have got the previous experience, which was leading their subordinators to be winner team.
- They can get used to new environment easily from their previous company.

Communication, cooperation, being independent and unique character for the worker during the education from the society, it can produce their own character it is essential for our team member.
Motivation
Motivation means performing improvement in the staff, it can force the staff what they want to do and be motivated by the leader.
There are some examples, which explain how to motivate my team:
- Members separate their position individually in our team; it will not make confused on the processing.
- Learning from mistake, mistaking can grow up our team working experience, which can get corrected in projects.
- We can try to find out the reason if the strategy is not successful. What do we have to improve from the mistake? Most importantly, we cannot give up if we make mistake.
- We can provide group of deliberation and discussion, those can improve community with each other, which can increase loyalty of employees.
- Try new things, new things can improve their life experience. The major point does not scar for trying new things.
- Providing individual interview with all employees at the beginning, analysis their feelings and provide psychological support for workers.
- Providing some entertainment for my team, stress level can make high pressure for my team as affecting the efficiency on the processing. Besides, it can improve the community and relationship between leader and subordinators.
- Paying the salary on time, workers cannot be usually overtime, otherwise, the team will be lack a person of a talent, morale, and loyalty.
- Workers can be able to be enthusiastic about working their job during the meeting with manager or staff training.
- Punishment can be able to use if subordinators do not follow that, it can be effective to increase the motivation of teamwork.
Empowerment and development
Some examples can explain to empower and develop our work for setting the objective of the organisation, as it is our suggestion:
- Reporting problems to leader and find out the answer what is wrong of it by the team, afterward, solve it out instantly.
- Set the objective and making the planning each year or month. Communicate with employees what we want to be achieved in the future. I prefer collecting proposal monthly from employee; it can obviously know the processing in my team.
- Provide staff training in our team, it can grow up their knowledge, skill, confident and experience in the future by improvement. It changes their job performance makes it as well as they can.
- Accept all opinion from our staff, considering all opinions, which is suitable or worse for company, if suggestion is suitable, worker can get more benefits from company.
- Communication is also important to increase the relationship between leader and subordinators. Sharing the opinion with each other is on the processing in the team by weekly.
- Increasing their salary or changing their position, when they achieve the objective and get projects done.
- Flexible working hour and labour holidays have to be prepared and be on time by the team leader.
Organisation and Monitor
I would like to use those points, which organizes and monitors my team’s workload:
- Fairing balanced workload for each worker in company.
- Consider what type of work they want to do as each worker has their own disposition, so that suitable position has to get distributed by team leader.
- If the candidates is good for selling product, he can be in promoting product position etc, each worker has their suitable position, which can develop their own character, and idea make it much better.
- In the production department, it has more workload because they have to create more products for customers, so that they have more labour holidays as comparing with other department.
- Setting the direction and making planning, what do we need to get in this year? How can we achieve a particular goal? It is possible to have overtime if we want to get the objective and a goal better.
- Preparing the schedule as a timetable for all workers, each worker will have regular timetable.

- High pressure is affected working environment in our team; provide 15 minutes of break after working 4 hours.
- Create fair working hours, as it has to be a balanced workload for workers.
