The Design Process
What is design?
Make something new How do the engineers design?
Start from need
Find the solutions
Estimate which solution is the best
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 3
The Design Process
Technical skills Other human activities
Cognition Creativity Personal discipline Interpersonal relations

The Design Process
The design of the Boeing 777 What is a design-build team? What are the critical issues that the design-
build teams had to take into consideration during the project?
What do you learn from the Boeing 777 development project?

Teams
What is a team?“A team is a small number of people with
complementary skills who are committed to
a common purpose, performance goals, and
approach for which they hold themselves
mutually accountable.”
(Katzenbach and Smith, 1993)
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 16
Teams
What are the habits of effective teams? Positive Interdependence
Mutual goals and rewards. Defined and assigned roles
Individual Accountability Measure the quality and quantity of member contributions
Face-to-Face “Mutual Promotion” Interaction Helping, sharing, and encouraging efforts to produce. “There is enough pie for everyone” – Crazy Pete
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 17
Teams
Interpersonal and Small Group Skills Exercise social skills: activity, constructive
decision making, trust building, open communication, conflict management
Group Processing Groups should take specific time to discuss how
well they are achieving their goals and maintaining their relationships
(Johnson and Johnson, 1993)

Team Development
5 Phases of Team Development Forming Storming Norming Performing (Success Phase) Adjourning
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 19
Forming
When the team first comes together. The team can form if the team members
Exchange contact information State their individual interest level in the
course Share their personal goals for the team
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 20
Storming
The least comfortable part of team development : Power struggle Picking well-understood team member
roles is one way to get pass the storming stage because team roles align individual goals with team goals.
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 21
Norming
The group gets together and decides how it will function, establishing norms how good a job it really wants to do and what to do about people who do not perform.
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 22
Performing
Everyone is working together toward a common goal.
Trust and respect between individuals has been established.
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 23
Adjourning
When the team has completed its task. If all the stages of team development
have gone well, the team members will want to thank each other for the experience of working together.
The quicker you get to the norming phase, the more quickly you will become an effective team!
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 24
Effective Team Meeting Introduction Promptness Review Agenda Communication Only accept jobs you can complete Complete all jobs you accept Seek an even partition of work on the team Be on time to team meetings Stay focused at team meetings Do not compete with your team member Do not ignore conflict Direct criticism at ideas, objects, or actions, not at an individuals
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 25
Team Member Roles
In an effective team, work is organized to support the team’s function and everyone contributes equally without much overlapping effort.
Team member roles should be selected at the first team meeting. Leader Recorder CAD coordinator Manufacturing coordinator
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 26
Teamwork Grading
In general, every student in a given team who signs and dates the final report will get the same grade. However, in exceptional cases the grade of an individual may be different, if there are clear evidence that he or she has not contributed.
You will do a member evaluation to evaluate the contribution of other members.

From the Tao Teh Ching to the Leader
太上,不知有之;其次,亲而誉之;其次,畏之;其次,侮之。信不足焉,有不信焉。悠兮,其贵言。 功成事遂,百姓皆谓“我自然” 。
(道德经,第十七章) (Lao Tzu, ~350-250 B.C.)
Shanghai Jiao Tong University 28
From the Tao Teh Ching to the Leader
To lead people, walk behind them.As for the best leaders, the people
do not notice their existence. The next best, the people honor and praise. The next, the people fear, and the next the people hate.
When the best leader’s work is done, the people say “we did it ourselves!”
(Lao Tzu, ~350-250 B.C.)
