Possible shortcomings with teams I may have:

I only feel at ease in well structured and organised meetings

My colleagues think that I am too much concentrated on the problem itself and that I take team items and the organisation
too little into consideration
I sometimes give in too easily to others without a proper discussion
I am inclined to talk too much, when I encounter new ideas
Because of my objectivity, I find it difficult to comply with others
I am looked upon as tiresome and authoritarian when something has to be done
I find it difficult to lead the way from the beginning, maybe because I am somewhat hypersensitive to the atmosphere in the
group
I might be so absorbed in my own ideas that I'm inclined to lose contact with the ongoing events
My colleagues think that I worry needlessly about details and about the chance things might go wrong

I would immediately try to find a way to diminish the task by determining the best people for executing certain tasks
My sense for what is and what isn't urgent takes care of not getting behind of schedule
I immediately would propose to divide the job on the base of expertise and I would start working on my piece
I think that I would stay calm and keep my ability to think objectively
I would, in spite of the pressure, work gradually towards the goal
I would take charge of things, when I noticed that the group was not making any progress
I would immediately start discussions to stimulate new ways of thinking and to bring about something or other
