So, which approach to team building do you think would be the best for your program, and more importantly, your sanity? Will you continue to look for as many superstars as you can, knowing that they may not stay around too long? Or, are you willing to pay more attention to complementary role players?

Initial Post Instructions
After reviewing the scenario, address the following questions:

1) What are the advantages and disadvantages of each type of team?
2) If you were to decide on the superstar-player approach, how would you deal with the instability within your organization?
3) If you were to take the team/role-player approach, what steps would you take to help the team, its members, and outsiders deal with the perceived lack of talent?

Identify and store  rugs, equipment and materials requiring secure storage appropriately. explain enterprise policies and procedures for confidentiality, privacy and security.

For this Assessment, you are given a list of questions for which you will write short answers.
The key to short answer Assessments is to carefully identify how many elements there are to each question. For example, is the question asking you to outline the key elements of a theory? Or is the question asking you to outline and discuss the key elements of theory and give an example.
Another good habit for short answer Assessments is to read the question very carefully. A common mistake is that students write everything they know about a topic, but don’t actually answer the specific question being asked. So read the question carefully, and answer it very specifically.
If you are unsure what the question wants, then ask your teacher for more explanation. If you have not met the word count, then you have not provided enough detail and should consider what is missing. Perhaps add an example, or relate your answer back to a theory, or maybe simply explain something in more detail.
