Components within this model take time to develop. Goals need time to be defined as they apply to the group. Mutual trust and respect are not innate qualities and thus develop over time within the team and it s processes. Self-interests can be a critical limitation. Members may not be committed to the team s purpose, as they tend to steer the team away from the focused goal and deliverables.
Diversity can help or hinder a team s processes.
If individual skills are too diverse without any commonalities, the members will not be able to complement each other s abilities. Strengths of this model include a focused cohesive structure to work from. This eliminates confusion and frustration among members, while helping to keep the team aligned with the common goal. The strengths of this model include not only measurable components, but those that are not quantifiable as well. The focus, ostensibly, needs to be on the components that are measured.
