Answer to Question 1

False. This is only true if managers view this in a win-lose framework. Managers have more power when they give it away.

Answer to Question 2

 Clearly define the team charter, outlining the scope of the project, the expected
deliverables and the timeline
 Overcome communication barriers by investing in language and cross-cultural
training
 Agree on norms of behavior to channel behavior correctly
 Adopt data-driven decisions to avoid decision biases like premature closure
 Develop alternatives to enrich the debate (e.g., dialectical thinking and devil's
advocates)
 Rotate meeting locations to accommodate members' needs
 Cultivate a culture of trust so members can feel free to rely on one another
 Schedule face-to-face meetings to build a solid foundation and perform periodic
team maintenance
 Rotate team leadership to give members opportunities to develop those skills
 Link rewards to team performance to ensure appropriate cooperation
 Build social capital in the organization by helping managers build social networks
outside their units
 Rotate personnel to different countries so they can understand members' situations and cultures
