ABSTRACT
In this chapter we discuss the role of teams in dynamic organizations and the particular challenges that they face in a dynamic environment. We focus on the constant membership and task changes that teams must accommodate in dynamic organizations. We further discuss how these changes might obscure information about who has expertise in the group. We suggest that these problems are, in large part, due to the increased use of inappropriate status cues. We offer several propositions that might help management scholars who are concerned about the process and performance of work teams.
