IDG Contributor Network: A note about teams

I'm writing a series of posts that discuss five tips for creating and leading agile data management development teams. My previous post focused on tip No. 1: "Hire 'A' Players and Empower Them." Before moving on to tip No. 2, I wanted to take a moment to discuss team dynamics.Way back in 1965, psychologist Bruce Tuckman came up with the concept of “forming, storming, norming and performing.” This phrase refers to the path that most teams follow on their way to high performance.
