The department chair had allotted plenty of time for all department (and project)members to prepare sections of their five-year program review.Administration demanded no less than 50 pages be devoted to a thorough and thoughtful review of activities and goals.What happened to the report was anybody's guess;no one had actually seen one or ever heard back from administration once they had submitted it.Most of the project team members thought the report was immediately sent to the steam tunnels running underneath the campus or perhaps it would sit collecting dust as part of a make-work program to justify an assistant VP's job.No wonder that team meetings were poorly attended and that all the sections of the report were filled with trite phrases and wide margins.This team suffers from:
A)tenure.
B)poorly developed goals.
C)poorly defined team interdependencies.
D)lack of motivation.
