Abstract

This work was partially supported by the Center for Collaborative Organizations, formerly The Center for the Study of Work Teams. The change in name reflects our recognition that collaboration occurs at many levels of organization besides the team level. The Center has always considered bridging the gap between the academic and practice worlds a mission to be pursued. The success of that bridging is critical for understanding practice and for basing practice on tested theory. The chapters in this book reflect this kind of bridging partnership.
