Concept of perceived self-control apply to this situation

Reference no: EM13494273

Team-based work groups in the business world are intended to build on group synergy, through a diversity of perspectives and membership that produces better decisions. However, it is often the case that group disharmony arises among the members, and becomes the chief output of group interactions instead. Consider the case of Elizabeth and her team.

Elizabeth is a very assertive and self-assured person who has a dominating interaction style. It is rare for anybody in the team to be able to get a word in edgewise in team meetings, especially for the members who are shy and introverted. Such group members start out with every intention of being productive, although as time passes they don't feel like their ideas are valued and their participation levels drop.

Two part question;

a. Can you justify the attribution that the introverted members are social loafers because they slack off? Explain your answer.

b. How does the concept of perceived self-control apply to this situation? Explain your answer.
