The first thing I would do if I was put in charge of a team to launch a product that had a history of failures is to review the previous launches to specifically identify the points of failure. Was there a marketing issue where it was not targeted correctly, or was subject materials ambiguous or incorrect? Was the team not educated correctly on the product, or did not have any faith in it? Next, I would meet with the team and assign clear and defined roles that played to the strengths of each member, as well as set the terms of collaboration to foster a cohesive work environment. (MyEducator, 2025) An effective leader should understand the members of their team, as well as the vision of higher management to direct the team in accomplishing the goal efficiently and effectively. They should do check-ins with the team to see how they are doing, but not so much as to micromanage. Communication channels should be in place, such as group chats to ensure everyone is on the same page, emails that do not have to be meetings, and open door policies that allow for anyone to ask for help from the entire team
