Team building aims to enhance social relations between team members, clarify roles, and solve problems affecting the team's functioning. It refers to activities that change a team's context, composition, or competencies to improve performance. Team building does not target skill development like team training does, and is typically done outside the team's normal work environment. Effective team building involves interdependent members with relevant knowledge and experience, organizational support for the team, and members willing to communicate needs. Challenges include a lack of teamwork skills, increasing virtual teams, and globalization.
