Abstract:

 When assessing the role and efficacy of team based organizations, our group found that a holisticapproach should be considered to understand the impact and implications of team based organizationsand self- management in organizational development. This paper attempts to explore this issue. Inaddition, this approach was engaged in due to our understanding of an efficacy being an interventionto produce or achieve a goal or desired effect. Hence, if applied to organizational development, thispresentation wishes to assess how and whether the implementation of team based organizations andself-management allows an organization to achieve success. However, we believe that team basedorganizations and self-management is inter-related terms, hence the focus would be how selfmanagementexists in teams. Although our presentation considers a holistic perspective which include:A background and introduction; a brief definition of a team; what is meant by a team basedorganization; the need for team based organizations; the six stages of team based work; different typesof teams; TBO in South Africa; Advantages and disadvantages of TBO, failures of TBO; and a CaseStudy on BMW South Africa, we have chosen to focus and elaborate on: The background andintroduction; a definition of a team; what is meant by team based organizations; and the case study ofteam work and self-management in BMW South Africa. The emphasis of this paper is to elaborate andjustify the sections of our presentation that we have engaged in. A paper of this nature cannot be allencompassing and does not pretend to capture or exhaust the subject matter to any finality.
