ABSTRACT
To the extent that teamwork was becoming a fashionable term, it began to displace the more usual reference to groups, including the autonoinous work group, which was fast fading as a favoured term. Every group activity was now being described as ‘team-work. Here one might be tempted to exclaim in Shakespearean mode: ‘What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.’ So does it matter whether one is talking about teams or groups?
