In order for an organization to deal with an increasingly complex marketplace, demanding customer requirements, and a diverse workforce, team work is no longer a luxury; it is a necessity to successfully compete.

There are many different types of teams and teams with different functions. However, teams have much in common as they evolve.

Understanding the stages teams go through and assisting them through early developmental rough spots is critical to producing successful work output. While the process of team development can be a rocky road, with a clear sense of purpose and underlying principles, a group of individuals can evolve into a highly productive team.
