Jason Jones has been asked to assemble an eight-member self-managed work team of experienced employees to work on a project that combines the functional areas of research, production, marketing, and distribution. Jason is apprehensive about managing a team so large; he knows from prior experience that larger teams do not always result in greater productivity. Jason has also been informed by the management that this team is being established as the project must progress according to the predetermined timeline. The work lagging behind by one division will cause a cumulative delay in all the successive stages of the project's execution. Jason plans to implement a group-based incentive that he feels would motivate each of the team members to work efficiently. Which of the following is an assumption made by Jason in implementing this plan?
◦ Increasing the number of experienced employees in the team will reduce the need for supervision.
◦ Each employee will be committed to working within the resources allocated.
◦ Each employee in the team is motivated to work equally hard to ensure that the group's performance is satisfactory.
◦ Since the team is comprised of employees who are highly skilled in their respective areas, the output of the group will be of high quality.
◦ Each employee will work well within the boundaries of their divisional functions, and conflicts will be relatively fewer.
