The most important thing is to communicate. If you have an issue, speak to the person that\u2019s causing the problem for ya. That\u2019s usually good advice in everyday life, too!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip #2:<\/strong> It\u2019s really important not to vote on your team: It is better to use consensus in all your team decision making. There\u2019s often a middle ground in disagreements where both parties will be happy. Never pick sides! That also means not talking behind peoples backs- always address an issue directly. More conflicts come up when you\u2019re stressed out, so try to keep things fun! Don\u2019t just work all the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip #3<\/strong> is to go out on some team pizza runs! Or be like our team and go to corn mazes together Team pizza runs are literally the best thing ever. Nobody can keep hard feelings over a pizza. But donuts work too, just use Lego Island as an example!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip #4:<\/strong> if you and somebody else really can\u2019t work out an issue, make sure you don\u2019t impact the rest of the team. Work it out between yourselves, and let the rest of the team keep their team dynamic.Remember that FTC is supposed to be fun. If you address any issues right when they come up, and let any hard feelings go over a big slice of teamwork pizza, everything should work out!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">To summarize:<\/p>\n<p>Tip #1 is to communicate!<\/p>\n<p>Tip #2 is to pull out that magical thing called consensus! It makes decision making so much easier!<\/p>\n<p>Tip #3 is have a good time with your team, don\u2019t just have it be work time every time you see each other<\/p>\n<p>Tip #4 is not to ruin the experience for everyone else if you\u2019re working out an issue.
