types of
workplace teams
Employee involvement teams are teams of workers (typically 5-10 people) who meet regularly outside their normal work units for the purpose of collectively addressing important workplace issues
Problem solving teams
(quality circles,
task forces and
autonomous work teams)
Quality circle is a small group of people who meet periodically to discuss and develop solutions for problems relating to quality, productivity and cost
. Task forces are temporary teams created to fulfil a defined task within a fairly short period of time.
Autonomous work teams perform highly related or interdependent jobs and they are given significant authority and responsibility for many aspects of their work such as planning, scheduling, assigning tasks to members and making decisions with financial consequences.
Self-managing teams (SMTs) or self-directed teams are small groups of people empowered to manage themselves and the work they do on a day-to-day basis.
A virtual team is one whose members work interdependently towards the achievement of a common goal across space and time or across organisational boundaries
