The group gathers and attempts to figure out a solution, but trouble starts brewing almost at once. Only some of the people do any work. Some people don’t get along. Meetings are frequent and mind numbing. No one is quite sure what the assignment actually is. I call well-assembled teams Station Teams. Station teams are based on what we know to be true about people and organizatio ...
