PTCL made a cross functional team to launch Chaar:i. The team members are from different
cities and of different departments. There are some issues related to this team5 because
members are from different cities and from different departments. There is a lack of trust
between the team members. There did not feel comfortable to share information with each
other.
Team 7/)&unction)
Lac0 o& tru)ts the team members are from different cities and from different departments there is
a lack of trust between the team members5 so they conceals there weaknesses from
each other and as a result of this these weaknesses were not overcomes. Thosemembers who had some weaknesses feel shy to ask for help from other team
members. ?n the other hand no one is willing to offer help to other member as they
thought that it might hit their personal interest. *n this situation of uncertainty most of
the team members failed to recognize their skills.
$ear o& con&licts trust is lacking between the team members5 team members avoid to participate inthe key issues5 so these issues remains unsettled. /ue to this back channel comments
and inferior discussion between the team members. 5 this cause great loss to the
organization and team members show artificial harmony.
Inattention to 8e)ult)*n this team tem members put their individual goals above the collective goal of the
team. The team members are not giving importance to their collective goals due to
this PTCL suffers.

behaviour which would definitely had the adverse effect on the other team members.
