Abstract
The concept of teams is rapidly changing the way products are developed and produced today. With the onset of such philosophies as Total Quality Management (TQM) and Concurrent Engineering (CE), today’s engineer must learn backgrounds. Moreover, the trend of downsizing has resulted in less people doing more and, subsequently, learning many additional, as well as different, skills than one could ever have imagined.
