Which type of team focuses on a single major issue of concern within a given process?

  1. Work team

  2. Project team

  3. Cross-functional team

  4. Department team

The correct answer is: Project team

A project team is designed to focus on a specific objective or major issue within a defined timeframe. This type of team is formed to solve a particular problem or to achieve a specific goal and is often composed of individuals with various skills and expertise that are relevant to the task at hand. The members of a project team work collaboratively to brainstorm, strategize, and execute a plan that addresses the issue in question. In contrast, work teams typically engage in ongoing, routine operations and are generally tasked with managing continuous processes rather than addressing a singular concern. A cross-functional team involves members from various departments or specialties, working together on broader issues rather than fixating on a single major concern, while department teams are confined to their respective functional areas and do not focus on cross-cutting issues. This focus on addressing a unique challenge makes project teams essential for targeted problem-solving and innovation within an organization.
