Team‐built Teams
Abstract
The Meal and Meal Components Section in Unilever Research was formed at the end of 1990, as a result of the refocusing of the Unilever Foods organization. With the Cambridge Management Centre a series of three‐day team‐building workshops was developed which was conducted off‐site in Northampton. It is noticeable that commitment to take time out for communication and team building back in the work situation has been high in “team‐built” teams. The shared experience of the workshops has also provided a common currency in the day‐to‐day working of the section. There is much greater awareness of “differences” in the attitude and approach of team members.
