Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autonomous work teams are self-managed and have high levels of collaboration, communication, and decision-making. As a result, members of autonomous work teams have increased job satisfaction and reduced conflicts, since they have more control over their work and are empowered to make decisions together. Egalitarian teams may also have reduced conflict, but this is not guaranteed since they may still have power dynamics and conflicts related to decision-making. Dependent teams may have increased conflict if they rely on one another to complete tasks, but do not communicate effectively. Large teams are more likely to experience conflict due to the difficulty in coordinating communication and decision-making among a larger group of members.
