• Refer to the Week 2 Discussion and its assigned case study. Specifically, return to a strategy for motivating employees and creating positive outcomes that you recommended to a leader in the scenario.
• Draft your "communication piece":
  • Using the strategy that you proposed in Week 2, brainstorm some ideas and provide an outline or rough draft of your "communication piece." Additionally, identify the individuals and/or teams from the scenario to whom you would need to address through the communication.
• Work with a team:
  • By Tuesday, form or join a team of at least two people to help you refine your strategy.
    • You can choose your colleagues to be part of the team, and there is an Optional Discussion this week that provides an area for you to form a team and coordinate a time to work together. If you prefer to collaborate with your team in the online classroom, there is a groups area available that you can use. You can request access to a group from your Instructor. Be sure to provide the names of everyone in your team. Your Instructor can then enroll your team into a group.
    • Optionally: You may also choose to work with two people outside of the classroom (e.g., coworkers, family, friends) to receive feedback. If you choose this option, be sure to account for extra time that may be involved for those individuals to familiarize themselves with the scenario and the Week 2 Discussion prompts.
  • Provide your draft "communication piece" to your team.
  • Seek your team's feedback on whether you addressed all of the individuals in the scenario and if there is anything you should include or remove from your "communication piece." How would they feel if they were to receive this announcement?
  • Make note of your experience working with your team.
• Incorporate the feedback you received and finalize your "communication piece.

Post your evaluation of team-building principles. Be sure to include the following:

1. Include the final version of your proposed "communication piece."

2.Rate your experience working with a team to revise your "communication piece."

3. Did you gain any additional insights from your team based on their feedback?

4. How might you relate this experience to a real-world situation and put it into practice? (Or, if you have already, how did this experience compare?)

5. Did working with a team make an impact on how you considered diversity, equity, and inclusion in your "communication piece"?

6. What is at least one benefit of working with a team?
