Both the article and lecture is discussing about consequences of group efforts in assigned projects of companies. The lecture opposes the idea of group effort and gives three points to prove the idea where as the article shows the advantages of group effort and provides three reasons of its support.
Firstly, the lecture argued by giving an example of a company that assigned a project to a team and after six months it found that some of the members of the team is enjoying free ride ie: they are not actually doing any work and only few members of the team working hard. But ,the success is recognized to the whole team rather than the real contributors. On contrary,the article claims that if a work is done by a team then that work will be efficiently done as it will involve expertise,skills of a no.of people.
secondly,the lecture claimed that result of some projects are really delayed because whole team need to take the decision and most of the time it is found that they don't reach census.they conduct meeting again and again to take a decision which is such a waste of time. However,the reading says that ,in team as there are lot of individuals ,the can reach a highly creative solutions in less time.it also stated that they can take risky decisions if needed as the distribution of responsibility will be on all members.
thirdly,the lecture posits that some members are really influential in a group and convince others though some of the members oppose their decision.when the project fails the blame is on all members of the group.so some creative persons always suffer.On the other hand,the reading explains that in a team everyone has a voice in decision making and that make them feel better and they have a greater chance to shine as their ideas are recognized by the whole team.
