Abstract
Although teams are currently a popular means of solving work force needs in health care, there has been little use of self-directed work teams--autonomous units without a front-line manager and empowered to control their own work. This article analyzes key differences between self-directed work teams and traditional teams, looks at three cases in which self-directed work teams were implemented, and discusses some of the barriers to the formation and use of self-directed work teams.
