Can anybody state the Similarities between being on a jury and group projects in organizations?

On a jury the only time you get to talk is during deliberations, and all the projects that I've worked has allowed me dialog throughout the whole project.   Pretty different if you ask me, if my experience is any indicator.

You must respond for jury duty.  \n\nOnce there you will be among many others, how many depends on a number of factors such as where you live and the type of cases to be tried.\n\nFrom this “Panel” of potential jury members individuals will be selected  through a process of Voir Dire (meaning – to speak the truth).  This is the preliminary examination made of prospective jurors so that the court (attorney questioning) can ask questions of the prospective juror to find out as to things such as competency, interest, knowledge of the parties involved in the case, things like that, and, from these select those they most desire on the final jury.\n\nIt is likely that those in the initial jury panel will not all have to go through this process (most jurisdictions select by lot) and after the jury selecting is complete the remaining people will be excused.  \n\nThose selected will comprise the jury itself and the alternates.\n\nIf a individual has some reason that they cannot attend they can present those reasons to the court.  If these are legitimate reasons that person will be excuse.\n\nDon’t the mistake of just not showing up.  You can be arrested and brought to the court.\n\nServing on a jury is a citizen responsibility and should be entered into willing and with enthusiasm.  It is one way a citizen can participate in the governmental process.  It is the right of our citizens to serve on juries to both judge the facts of the case as well as judge the application of the law, a right we have had since 1215 and the Great Charter (Magna Carta).\n\nThis is a responsibility each citizen should take seriously and gladly.  Those who advise to prospective jurors ways to just not do it, are doing you and your community no favor.

Interesting if you have nothing to do.  Otherwise it's a hassle. Companies will typically give you 2-5 paid leave days for jury duty.  If you are on jury for a 2 month trial, it could be real expensive for you.   \n\nPeople can get waived for jury duty if they prove it would be a financial hardship but it's not that easy to get (esp if you have a white-collar job).\n\nMost people try to get off by sounding bias when the lawyers and prosecutor interview the people in the jury pool.  Judges will scold you if your obvious about it.

Basically, the goal is to find a way to ask questions that will uncover those people who are likely to be on your side (either side). \n\nSome of these questions are designed to find potential jurors who would be biased against your case, or good for the other side, so that you can get them dismissed from the jury. Those are the most common, and they don't have to be too subtle.\n\nThe other type of questions are those which will reveal the jurors likely to believe your argument, but you need to do it in a way that doesn't reveal your strategy to the other side. This requires a lot of subtlety. It's usually just easier to accept anyone on the jury that you can't exclude.\n\nAs far as any particular situation, look for reasons of potential bias or prejudice. So, let's take a mugging case with three teenagers (first time offenders during spring break) as the defendants. \n\nThe defense might ask questions about who has ever been mugged, or felt threatened walking home at night, or was picked on during high school. These would indicate people likely to convict because they are afraid of being mugged themself. \n\nThe prosecution might ask questions about tolerance, mercy, people who have lived a little on the wild side themselves, people who are bullies, etc. This would indicate people likely to acquit because they either identify with the defendants, or because they believe everyone deserves a second chance.\n\nThe specific questions vary based on the fact pattern. But the goal is always to find out who among the jury pool would be bad for your case, for whatever reason, and get them dismissed.

Do a search in your library and the web using group dynamics. You'll be bowled over by the amount of research on that topic. There may even be some textbooks on the shelves. If this is a homework assignment and you are a graduate student, shame on you for asking the question here and not doing your own research. You gotta be really lazy not to be able to pull this together on your own. This might be a good place to ask "how have you dealt with such and such a team building problem?" but not getting other people to do your work. I always wonder about the ability of people to be professional and accurate if they rely on Yahoo Answers to do their assignments. By the way, it should be "question."

This may not help you a lot, but it shows these type issues have been around for a looong time.  And the thing about rotating people around as a band-aid to "help" isn't new either lol :)\n\nThis is a GREAT quote ......\n\n"We trained hard, but it seemed that everytime we were beginning to form into teams, we would be reorganized.  I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, ineffieiency and demoralization."\n\nPetronius Arbiter, 210 BC\n\nOBSERVATION.... I have never been directly involved in personnel&#92;staffing or strategic marketing and business focus issues but, as a past internal ISO 9001 program administrator for a multinational corporation, I have observed essentially the same symptomatic patterns as described by the first and third responder.  But... I would add this, some of the same patterns and phenomena can be triggered whether organizational change is needed, or, has recently been implemented.  This somewhat supports the comment from Citizen Arbiter. Go figure.

General proceedure goes as follows:\n\n1.) Arrive at courthouse on time, present juror notice to officers at front door or jury managment office (depends on state your in)\n\n2.) You will be one of a large group that was sent notices to create a jury pool ( 40-60 people usually)\n\n3.) from the pool of prospective jurors 12 people will be chose at random as jury selection begins in several cases that day.\n (Note: Most U.S. Court systems have several trials set to begin jury selection on the same day and by creating a pool of people they can eliminate jury selection for several cases at once.)\n\n4.) If your in a selected group you will be taken to the courtroom and seated in jury box, after some proceduaral stuff the court will be turned over to the prosecution/defense councils to begin a brief introduction of what a case may be about and then on to specific questions directed at the prospective jury members)\n\n5.) JURY SELECTION - Generally each council (prosecution and defense) may 'strike a juror' (dismiss them) without cause or reason up up to 3 jurors (occasionally more), after using there 'strikes' the councils may request the dismissal of a juror memeber based on 'cause' (i.e. - the juror members answers to one or more questions asked of them indicates they are biased or have knowledge of the case that may cause them to pre-judge guilt or innocence) - in this case if the judge agrees the prospective juror is dismissed for cause. All jury memebers dismissed for cause or by 'strike' will return to the jury pool and become subject to selection for another jury and case until dismissed for the day by the court.\n\n6.) PLACEMENT ON A JURY - If the councils come to an agreement on 12 jurors and two alternates then the remaining potential jurors will be dismissed while the 14 chosen are retained. They will be given court instructions on silence, confidentiality and a host of other things and will either be sent home with instructions to return the following day for trial. They may possible have the trial the same day in which case the juror will hear the case and render decisions like any other jury. or in rare cases (capital crimes, murders etc. etc.) the jury may become sequestored, in this case they will be the guests of the courthouse/state at a  local motel or building provided with beds, food, bathrooms for 1 or more days until the trial is resolved. This later case is unpleasant because it will keep a jury memeber away from home, family and work until the job is completed.\n\nI hope this provided a VERY BASIC idea of the process and what to expect.

The jurors are picked for their integrity and honesty and the judge has to deliver that message to them and he has to trust them to do as they are told.  I would find it hard not to talk to my husband abou a case.  We talk about everything.

Your project is basic in its scope. What it is asking you for is to make a statement. For example, your premise is “All guys are dumb”!\n\nNow you must set up a study as to how you want to prove your statement. For example: You will conduct a study on asking males and females the same series of question. Further, you can ask all the males questions within their group as well to study how they react amongst themselves. \n\nThis study will provide you with results that you need to review and draw conclusions from. This is the details stage. \n\nIn every study there are variable that need to be considered. Some are controllable some are not. Those that are, you need to identify and control them in a common way amongst all the population of your groups. Those that are not, you need to identify and draw conclusion as to how they will change any of your results if at all. This is your control stage.

Kind of. It's kind of random how they select people. But as long as you are registered to vote, you should be chosen within every 7-10 years. (I just got summoned actually, I need to report in July). But when you do get summoned, some ways to help you a little bit is when asked if you would take a cops word over the accused's word just because he's a cop, say no. Because you shouldn't assume the cop is telling the truth just because he's a cop. Also don't say anything that might make you seem more biased against any particular race, religion or anything like that. Answer the ballot the way you think they would want you to.\n\nMy mom did jury duty a couple months ago. She originally didn't want to do it but got chosen anyway. She ended up really enjoying it. I want to do it too, but I'm a little nervouse about taking the bus to Norristown (about an hr from my house) by myself at 7:00 in the morning...\n\nGood luck though! I know you'll probably enjoy it. It's kind of exciting and you learn a lot of legal stuff. Like my mom knows such much about Identity Fraud now because that's what her case was about. Enjoy!

it depends on your determination, skills, ability and knowledge. like for example, if you are a go-getter person, you have a tendency to reach higher goals then you may have multiple projects and aim to get different positions or career to satisfy your curiosity. but if you are an average person, you may tend to stay loyal to the same job you have cause you are at ease with what you got going until it's time for you to retire, unless the company is downsizing and your ability does not meet the quality or performance they are looking for, then you will be the first one to go especially you have the seniority and due to the new approach by bigger company now these days, they rather hired a fresh one than pay you with the same amount and benefits without being counter productive.

its really a kind thing u have thought about. such tasks require great passion and the determination. search for the people who also want to be the part of this noble deedif not then u can start with small things urself as great work requires no assisstance. it requires only will.....locate the areas which are best suited i mean the place u think to start with... understand their basic requirement... then prepare a detailed study of that ... once u r prepared with ur study... look for existing NGOs. what are their startegy... once u r done with ur basic study on this ... u will clearly see ur way....People leaves a benchmark for others!!!!please reach out for any clarification.Thanks!

Yes, they are,  They would normally be transferred to the juvenile division of the criminal court system.  All defendant individuals within the criminal system have the right of a jury trial.  Whether this is the best solution or not is a different matter.

To answer your question, ask yourself the following:\n\n(Participation) How successful is a group working towards a project if only one person is working? Two people are working together? Three people are working together? Everyone is working together?  Can one person not get along working with others destroy the whole group? Can a person participate in a group and not contribute to the group? Can a person contribute and not participate?\n\n(Leadership) What kind(s) of leader(s) is/are needed for a group to be successful? Are there more than one leader? What would happen if there is no leader? Why is leadership important? Can a leader also follow?  Can a follower also lead?  Can a person be both a leader and a follower?  What happens when a person is neither? Is a leader better than a follower? Is a follower better than a leader?\n\n(Motivation) What motivates a group? Can a group be successful without motivation?  What happens when one person is motivated and the other is not? How can the motivated person motivate the person that is not? Is personal motivation different from group motivation? Is your personal motivation good for your group? Is the group motivation good for you personally?\n\nBy the way, if you watched Donald Trump's Apprentice on NBC-TV, you get an idea of how participation, leadership and motivation skills are demonstrated in group process.
