Genre: Teamwork

“In a regular team, as opposed to a group, members tend to become more motivated, develop new ideas to improve team performance and take on more responsibility in putting plans into action. A self-managed team is a specific type of team that sustains a high degree of collaboration and that manages itself with the aim of growing into a very high performance team. In self-managed teams, trust grows among the team members as work progresses and they become motivated to accept more difficult challenges. The focus in these types of teams is on performance as well as on teamwork. Their success requires strong personal and company commitment, skills development and support from both fellow team members and management.”
