ABSTRACT

Technically, team building is a disciplined, professionally facilitated process used by a collection of people who most often report to some supervisor. Generally, members have the same higher missions and need to be synergistic: The group (or groups) do not have to be at war, dysfunctional, incompetent, or distrustful. In fact, what is called a team building intervention may be a problem intervention or a development intervention. In the lifetime of effective working teams, both types may be called for. Most interventions are not totally one or the other. Figure 1 shows the range of interventions on a normal curve of needs that an intervention will deal with.
