Re: Team Governance

Paul,
as has been said above, there is no blueprint for how a team is structured. It is whatever works best for the majority and/or the team founders and/or the team sponsors (there are probably about 100 more factors that come into play) Many teams go through evolutions, and change based on the players, finances, outside demands. Sometimes these issues are so big, that teams drop out, or split up, or change course.

The important part is that the expectations are clear to all involved. Having a mission statement, team handbook and a contract can really help because there it is in black and white. I also like Kathie's exit interviews.

There is a reason everyone has to have a rookie year. There is only so much that can be explained ahead of time.

Keep in touch.
