The document discusses team work and effective team building. It explains that teams must have a common purpose and goals to be considered a true team rather than just a work group. Effective teams have clear goals and roles, commitment from members, competence, consensus-based decision making, and diversity. Teams go through four stages of development: forming, storming, norming, and performing. In the forming stage, members are introduced and goals are established. In the storming stage, members may argue about roles and goals. In the norming stage, trust and agreement on norms develops. In the performing stage, members are motivated and leadership is shared based on skills and knowledge.
