Helping global teams compete

In global organizations, every team intervention - from measuring team performance to team development training to other miscellaneous consulting initiatives - needs to consider the dynamics of global teams. The definition of "good team member" varies from country to country. The concept of "effective leadership" may also differ. As a result, global teams sometimes find themselves reconfiguring into national collections of subteams. Even when you can resolve team problems by training, one type will not fit all teams, especially global teams.
