Abstract
In current organizations, managing teams is becoming more important and complex, due to the critical, practical, and strategic implications of doing so. Team composition has dramatically changed in companies, capturing new social and demographic tendencies, and making teams more diverse and multicultural. In this context, organizations should pay particular attention not only to teams and their functioning, but also to team managers and how they effectively implement practices to guide teams towards company goals.
