Cross Functional Teams Weaknesses
🔥
NEW One major weakness I have realised about cross function teams is that they
promote individualism when you're using experts as members.
Also they can be particularly
difficult to manage if the immediate manager is a ''general'' manager without particular expertise in any of the grouped jobs. The experts are authorities in their fields and obviously for managers without this particular expertise it is hard to determine if the experts are doing their jobs accordingly. They have limited options to verify their claims.
