Re: Team Consistancy
There are so many factors that go into running and maintaining a successful team:
If a team can build a solid base of teachers, mentors and adults that are dedicated to the program and know what they need to do to make their team succeed in FIRST, that is a huge help.
Also equally important is a solid student group that builds off these adults, if students as a group take responsibility and know what they need to do for success, and if they can also pass that along to the younger students on the team, that is key. This is a cycle that I think is crucial to sustaining a team.
In addition to the people, you need to have a sponsors/financial base that you can count on year after year and also one that grows as your team grows.
If a team is missing or lacking even one of these components, things can go bad. Everyone needs to work together to make good things happen.
Every team should strive to have all of these things, along with a solid process on how everyone and everything works together.
