I am not aware of any significant use of the model or of any real impact on the field of Adult Education in the United States. I have longe since moved on from the field of Adult Education and am now very involved in Public Education at the Elementary level in the US. But again, it was gratifying to see my model referenced in 2008. If you know of any other people using or interested in the model, I'd be happy to hear from you.

I suspect that we will come, over time, to re-define what is a team when today one can be a member of various groups of (different) people working on different projects, whether freelance or inside a given organization. The environment is to continuously-flowing and constantly-changing for the older notion of a team in a relatively steady-state environment to sustain long term effectiveness .. IMO.

Like it was written in the good old book "Peopleware" - it's people that matters, and in projects people need to form a team, no team - no successful project :) I think that “workers who can collaborate” can never overcome a TEAM.

I put this together because Mark's writing relates to wirearchy and some other things I'm mulling over. I had to get it posted before I forgot it and now it's easily retrievable. Your comments help confirm that there is something to it. Thanks. For the most part I make these short posts so that I can grab these pieces when I’m working on a larger project.

Funny, and you may not believe it, but the graphic is a dead ringer for thoughts that have been floating around in my head for the last couple of months.

To me, teamwork is 15 rafting people yahooing and flailing mightily with paddles as the roaring river itself decides their fate and they all end up going down the drain. Collaboration, on the other hand, means they decide instead to poke holes in the raft and spend the day in a quiet place, adding to each other's experiences.
