A traditional team is a fixed group of people working on a fixed set of tasks long term. The polar opposite is a FLUID team, a dynamic grouping of people for short-term projects. Fluid teams are extremely successful in fast-paced organizations. How?
People from various departments come together quickly and connect effectively. Their collaboration is highly agile, with very little hierarchy and decentralized decision-making. After the project is finished, the team dissolves with some/all of its members reshuffling. This flexibility to move in and out of teams keeps employees’ drive and authenticity high. They’re constantly in new environments, free of stagnation, bias, routines, politics, etc. So FLUID TEAMS produce far better results by keeping things fresh and exciting, leading to rapid growth.
