Team Critical Success Factors (CSFs)
Describe the indicators you’ll use throughout the semester to tell whether your team is being successful. Scores on your project assignments are an obvious CSF. But think beyond this. Think about the things that tell you, on a week-to-week basis, whether you are or aren’t being as successful as you want. For example, in addition to assignment scores, you might consider CSFs related to:


 * Having fun within the team
 * A relatively low level of aggravation, frustration, or vexation among team members or between the team and your client
 * Treating one another with respect
 * Learning from one another
 * Working effectively
