"A collection of staff members with similar skills, brought together because there is more work to do than one person can complete in the required time" describes a(n) ________ work team.

integrated
relay
simple
problem-solving

The correct answer is: simple

The description provided in the question refers to a simple work team. This type of team typically consists of individuals who possess similar skills and are assembled to tackle a task or project where the workload exceeds what one person can handle alone. These individuals cooperate to efficiently distribute tasks among themselves, allowing for a more manageable division of labor and ultimately leading to enhanced productivity. In a simple work team, the focus is primarily on completing the assigned task in a timely manner, leveraging the team's collective skill set to meet deadlines and achieve objectives. This contrasts with more complex collaborative structures, such as integrated teams, which might involve cross-functional collaboration, or problem-solving teams that typically focus on addressing specific challenges or tasks that require input and insight from a variety of expertise. Recognizing these distinctions helps highlight the unique characteristics of a simple work team and its role within the broader context of workforce dynamics and task management.
