Talk:Managing Groups and Teams/Communication

From Wikibooks, the open-content textbooks collection

I added our team's (team 2) question as the first challenge under chapter 2. I'm not sure if I did it correctly, so please provide input.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan - It looks fine to me. Your team is probably going to want to narrow the topics covered for this chapter, as your questions cover a lot of ground. As you start to formulate the problem more clearly, you can change the first part of the chapter to reflect this, as opposed to just listing the questions. Beth

Hi all - I moved the material from the front page into the chapter to de-clutter the front page. All the information is still there. I would also recommend checking out the Big Five as another part of your conversation on personality, since it is a much more robust test than either of the other two frameworks (from a scientific point of view). A good place to start might be http://www.centacs.com/quickstart.htm#Background . You can also take the Big Five test at: http://www.outofservice.com/bigfive/ , http://www.od-online.com/app/profiler-intro.asp (Free, but for $14.95 they send some nifty stuff), and http://www.sunderland.ac.uk/tbc-scripts/big5/b52scrpt1.pl (Free, with interesting spelling since it is in the UK.)

I agree with Gerardo - the Big Five is the most generally accepted scientific personality test. Prof B 23:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Another thought... Notice that there is a whole chapter devoted to personality in groups. You might want to make sure your chapter is going to be different enough if you just focus on personality. Gerardo.ok 22:04, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
