The British Columbia Provincial Government is initiating a new project for the shipping industry $($e$.$g$.,$ truck, train, sea$).$ The project manager is one of the directors from the Transportation Department, and she has called for a kick$-$off meeting with the other five team members. The team members have quite diverse background and expertise, and they were elected from Truck Association, VIA Rail, Pacific Cruise, First$-$Nations communities. At the meeting, some request for more investments in infrastructure, some call for attention to protect the land and environment, and others argue for increasing the worker's standard rate.

If you were the project manager, how would you deal with this situation in order to improve the team effectiveness?
