Roles definitely play an important factor in a workplace when working in teams or groups.  The two types of roles, that  I read in this chapter, are task and maintenance roles.  Task roles helps the team members understand the purpose and goals of the team. For example, in our team assignments for this class it is important to understand the assignment and goals to complete that assignment.  Task roles include different area facilitators such as a leader/initiator to start things off and many others.  My understanding of maintenance roles is that people who are in the groups and in these roles are perceived as the “peace keepers.”  They encourage team members and help resolve conflict amongst the team.

Having power comes with a lot of responsibilities, and if your mind is not ready to handle that then it could cause problems within the company. if you learn how to handle the power given then things should run efficiently
