Multidisciplinary teams in exploration and production: Their value and future, Part 3, Building successful teams, team recognition and rewards, and MDTs in the future

摘要

Successful MDTs do not happen automatically. No exact formula for building, developing, and guiding MDTs is known; however, a number of elements must be present to ensure success. Table 1 lists 10 elements found in successful MDTs. This list is based on observations of more than 75 teams. In addition to my own experience building or helping build MDTs, I have incorporated observations from more than 200 managers, supervisors, team leaders, and team members from 30 successful teams and two that failed economically.
