Assignment
For this assignment you will role play. Presume that you are the manager of one of the teams identified in the course project (Attached as Team Building) and that you have been asked to lead a new project team. Your task is to create a virtual team consisting of experts from across the country who will share best practices. Members of your virtual team could include some representatives from the three teams you identified. The goal of the new, virtual project team is to enhance organizational knowledge. In your role play scenario, a number of senior organizational members expect to retire in the next few years. Capturing their knowledge and wisdom will be crucial.

1. Provide a brief description of the team, its purpose, the organization, and the current situation. Because this is a role play, you may create hypothetical details as needed to fill "gaps" in the scenario.
