Organization Management - Dynamic Creative Team Coordination

This book explores how a team developmental process unfolds and proposes a model illustrating how the groups repeatedly change formation to manage job interdependencies and new issues while developing, building up, and synthesizing new ideas into a final creative solution. It challenges assumptions about the role of formal structures and informal practices and provides an alternative perspective to the stages the groups have to go through by emphasizing a cyclical and not a linear team developmental process.

This extensive open-access book delves into a thorough examination of the dynamics between two creative groups (film production crews) within temporary organizations during two media projects. Through a detailed process study, it explores the intricate unfolding of a team developmental process, proposing a model that illustrates how these groups continually transform their formation to effectively manage job interdependencies and address emerging challenges while developing, building, and synthesizing new ideas into a final creative solution. This theoretical framework on creative group dynamic coordination expands our understanding of how and why creative groups coordinate, challenging prevailing assumptions about the significance of formal structures and informal practices by showcasing their dynamic interplay and complementary nature, ultimately facilitating coordination through the emergence of what may be perceived as "un-coordinated methods." Moreover, it offers an alternative perspective to the traditional stages of group development by emphasizing a cyclical rather than linear team developmental process.
