In my point of view the team or group work is the better than individuals, because when you take a team work the time will be less and effective, but in the individuals work the time will be difficult to do in less time.

If we take an example of transport office in our country it will divided into main branches and as well as sub branches.

If we take an another example like Private organisations.

I would like to say that India work better in groups rather then individual. The good example is India festival shri krishna gokul asthma, where we need to reach the top of pot, as we need to go with all together to reach the pot, as individual can not reach.

Hi friends,

Earlier in 90's management studies were not very common in India and therefore, a few were having the idea of the group characteristics. During that period, being ignorant to the different stages of a group, Indians preferred to work as an individual. Off-late, with more and more students opting for management studies, we understood that group has stages viz. forming, storming, norming and performing.

So the argument within the group, which were earlier considered as impediments for accomplishing any given task, are now being considered merely as stage of group and we know that all these arguments are leading towards giving the best ideas resulting in fulfilling the responsibilities perfectly.

The best example for groups, performing better than an individual is the Self Help Group in the field of micro finance. These SHGs are being considered, all over the world, as better option for extending financial assistance as compared to financing to an individual.

So I would say that the present era is the era of working in group and another example, in Indian politics, is the collation government and contesting elections with allies, which now a days is said to be the future of Indian Politics.

I personally think that an Indian can perform better in a group because Indians are usually very compromising have a good temper and can manage things very effectively.

Not only this in group Indians usually don't interrupt in other persons work had hence the work goes on effectively.

I think many answers are biased. Any individual cannot perform without a team. Even if we talk about a football player or a politician or Saniya Mirza or M S Dhoni it is same for everyone. Everyone only performs in a team. Everyone can only give their outcome in a team. Yes, of course, there will be differences which can be cleared after discussing over that. I don't think football player can perform individually if he was been trained by 3 to 5 people who were working in a team. I don't think that M S Dhoni could have performed if he wouldn't go through the training which was given to him by his group of trainers. I think any individual cannot work or succeed alone. If he or she works in the group then only he or she can succeed and make many more successful people in future.

In my point of view India can perform very well as individual and as a group. As a group Indian cricket team, not successful only for M.S Dhoni. There the success is hard work of every player of the team. And many politician are success for the group perform. And Viswanathanand and many more player are success as a individual perform.

According to me Indians are good as a individual and also at a team. Indians are so talented and have so much ability and adaptability that they can work both individual and at a team. It is only depends on the situation. As an example Indians are good at team sports like cricket (Sachin Tendulkar) and also good at individual sports like boxing (MC Mary Kom).

I'll go in support of this topic. India is a country where people are willing to keep themselves idle, if they get a little time. They always depends upon there assistants or juniors to complete the task for them. So if they had to work in a team, everyone will look for another one to complete the project and the efficiency is decreased.

In the other hand if a work is given to a person, then he will give a better effort on the job.

The key fact is Indians are talented and can handle tougher to toughest problem, but they don't try it if any short-cut is there to skip the problem.

To win a war, group work is needed. Any organization sustains on group work and all employees have to work for a single vision of the company. Indians, from the ancient past have set an example of group work from the time of freedom to establishing greater heights in business, manufacturing industries etc, but due to severe competition and the urge to perform, people tend to forget the importance of group effort. So training and development programs should be provided to Indians to work better in a group and succeed in doing the job efficiently.
