Groups and teams

 

GROUP is a more GENERAL and LOOSE term, and can be used in DIFFERENT CONTEXTS  including :  (1)  individuals in a group  (2) companies in a group, ...

 

TEAM on the other hand seems to be more SPECIFIC AND WELL DEFINED.   We talk about teams of individuals (people) ...not teams of companies for example. 

 

The other thing about teams is that they are more bound together towards a common goal or objective and have clear leader (TEAM LEADER), where this may not exist in groups and we do not usually see "Group Leader"  ... 

 

There is so much literatue available on the different types of teams, how teams compare to groups, and how to build effective teams and groups 

It is not practically possible to try to type all of this into such a brief answer like this .

 

However, if you have more specific question ... or if you need specific help in a situation that you are facling, let me know and let us see ho we can work on it
