Product design team A temporary team assembled to design a new product or service. Committee A temporary or permanent group of people assembled to act upon some matter.

10. Stages of Team Development

14. Stages of Team Development Production (Performing) The team is accomplishing work effectively. Production is high and the climate is positive. Member attitudes are characterized by positive feelings and eagerness to be part of the team. Members are confident about the outcome, enjoy open communication, exhibit high energy, and disagreement is welcome and handled without emotional conflict. Although work is being accomplished through all the stages, this stage reflects the work being accomplished most effectively.

15. Stages of Team Development Termination In the case of temporary teams such as task forces, design teams, and problem solving teams, a fifth stage reflects the ending of the process. Depending on the team's success in accomplishing its task and how strongly the members have bonded, this stage may reflect either a sense of loss or relief. When a team ends, time should be spent addressing how it should be done to properly recognize the team's accomplishments.
