title: Tapping into teams.
abstract: Team management has a definite cachet in management circles in general industry; business magazines like Fortune regularly write about the concept, and executives in a wide variety of business fields are excited by it. But there's a lot of confusion behind the buzz, and the reality, say experts and those who've tried it, is a lot more complex than it might seem at first. Can the idea even be applied to hospitals and other large health care organizations?
