Howto: Get Teammates to Follow Through
And why were you groaning?
Was it because the project was uninteresting? Sometimes.
Was it because you were already trying to dig yourself out from under an avalanche of homework? A little bit.
But was the real reason the fact that you inevitably would end up on a team where one or more of the members DIDN'T DO THEIR PART?!
Dollars to donuts that's EXACTLY why a day at the dentist was preferable to working in a team.
Now, I'm a big advocate of teams. I love spit-balling ideas, listening to fresh perspectives, assigning tasks, and coming together to create a real powerhouse of a project. And when I entered the corporate arena, I thought I left behind the days of being stuck with unresponsive, uncommunicative, and unmotivated teammates who didn't pull their own weight.
Unfortunately, I was wrong.
