Building the Project Team - Instructor's Guide

Construction is a “people intensive” industry with work being carried out by groups of people rather than by individuals. For every project, it is a given that there will be a project “team.” The challenge is to ensure teamwork. Individuals acting alone, even within a group, cannot achieve project success.

“Team building” will be done either proactively or by default. Effective teams are more likely to be the result when a proactive team building process is undertaken. A successful project is a more likely outcome with effective teams.
