Acknowledges that "team magic, as wondrous as it can be, is rarely seen". Urges the need to create a workgroup that truly functions as a real team, provide a compelling direction for work, set up an enabling structure, ensure that the organization is supportive of the team approach, and be prepared to motivate, teach and consult with team members. Concludes that the responsibility of team leadership must be shared.
