What is the purpose of establishing ground rules?

  1. To ensure competition

  2. To decrease misunderstandings and increase productivity

  3. To assign specific roles

  4. To create a hierarchy

The correct answer is: To decrease misunderstandings and increase productivity

Establishing ground rules is important for promoting a positive and productive team environment. Option A is incorrect because competition can often have a negative impact on teamwork and collaboration. Option C is incorrect because while specific roles may be assigned, ground rules are meant to establish guidelines for behavior and communication within the team. Option D is incorrect because hierarchy can create a power imbalance and hinder effective communication among team members. By setting ground rules, it helps to decrease misunderstandings and conflicts, and ultimately leads to a more efficient and cohesive team dynamic.
