Answer to Question 1

The first dimension is purpose or mission. Work teams are primarily concerned with work done by the organization. Improvement teams have the mission of increasing effectiveness of processes, of the organization. The second dimension is time. Temporary teams are established for a specific project with a limited life. Permanent teams stay intact as long as the organization exists. The third dimension is the degree of autonomy. Self-managed teams are almost completely autonomous, scheduling their own work, etc. In work groups, the leader makes the decisions on behalf of the members who follow orders. The fourth dimension is authority structure. Intact teams work on specific projects and their authority structure is contained within the team. Cross-functional teams draw members across functions from the same level of the organization to work together. The fifth dimension is physical presence. In physical teams, members are physically present. In virtual teams, members meet via electronic means.
