I agree with everyone’s answers. However, I disagree that specific members are necessary to have a successful team. I think it’s more important to have specific qualities within team members.
Overall, I believe that people should have:
Management – members should be able to properly allocate resources such as time and money. Money would be lost when these thing are wasted and that, in turn, makes the project more expensive.
Leadership – there must always be a leader to a group that will guide them through the project. People must also be able to step up when their project mates are lagging in their work.
Knowledge in subject matter – members must be well-versed in the scope of the project. This will allow for the development of a good product that factors in the requirements needed and for unforeseen factors that the team may come across with as the project is further developed.
Knowledge in related fields – members must be familiar with subjects related to the project in order to solve problems that may arise from the development.
Creativity – members must be able to think outside the box in order to created innovative products. Creativity in members may also stimulate the other members to think differently and may allow them to solve problems faster through the newly discovered process
Hard-working – members must be willing to put in the work and offer late nights and extended hours to finish the project when things need to be done
