Is That Actually Improving the Team? — An Organizational Experiment Starting from 'What Is a Team?'
summary
An organizational-development experiment created Team.KAIZEN by merging a team-improvement group with HR to organize people by purpose rather than job role. The team has tested reframing outputs as “state changes for users,” running cross-role workshops to map overlapping purposes, and deliberately slowing change after increased influence was perceived as power; so far these actions produced locally sensible results but no clear system-wide improvement.
