Valley Crossing & Management Principles in it

                  Making difficult task easier as a piece of cake is possible with excellent teamwork.3 persons crossing a valley is a good example of it.This scenario depicts how 3 people cross a valley,what difficulties they faced and how they have overcome it with their team work and co-ordination.

Stages they have undergone:

Safe - Both the legs of the person have full support

Half Risky – One leg in the air and the other leg has support

Full risky - Both the legs are in the air without any support

Half risky – One leg is in the air and the other leg has support

Safe - Both the legs have full support

9 different stages 3 people undergo while crossing the valley

Lessons Learnt :

 Significance of each member in a team:

           In this situation all three are equally responsible in their contributions for the overall task completion.Roles of all three members are similar but not same, and equivalent in terms of total effort & risk.All 3 member Roles have equal distribution of 

Risky situations (1)

Half risky situations (2)

No risk situations (2)

           Similarly in an organization,all roles are designed for equally strong persons and there is no weaker or stronger requirement in any specific role.The onus lies on the team members to communicate and feedback across the members instantaneously.Interdependence among the members can be exercised in crucial situations

Preparation and Execution:

         All the 3  members are systematically trained for all the steps and, while crossing, they communicate and coordinate with each other through a various kinds of sounds and other signals.

Team Excellence:

        Team excellence comes through proper designing of team tasks, correctly assigning team roles, and preparation and execution of the tasks. Thus, excellence is designed by the managers and executed by team players with trust among themselves.
