Teams and Groups

Teams are groups of workers whose tasks are interdependent, who share common goals, and who have a shared identity or sense of themselves as a bounded group. In international management, multicultural and global teams are prevalent. Multicultural teams are culturally diverse, while global teams are also geographically distributed and thus embedded in different cultural contexts.
