New paper: Self managing teams - feasible or fantasy?
Category: Current news
| Date: 29/05/2008
The idea of a self managing team (SMT) is appealing to most managers and organisations, but they turn out to be quite hard to set up and sustain. There is considerable research on the topic, but such teams mostly appear in 'ideal' situations and for short periods of time. Not very helpful for the 'normal' business. Craig and Erin discuss the theory and practice of self managing teams and recent PTG experiences - Self managing teams don't have to be a fantasy.
