This question is making my head spin faster than a centrifuge! I'm just hoping the answer choices don't include 'teams should be made up of only people who look and think exactly the same' - that's a recipe for a boring, unchanging business if I ever saw one!

This exam question is straight-up fiendish! But I reckon C, E, and F are the winners here. Crossing boundaries can lead to new and improved ways of doing things, and teams are key for tackling change head-on. As for A, that's like saying chocolate and peanut butter can't work together - blasphemy!

Oof, this is a tough one. I'm gonna go with C, E, and F as well. Teams that cross boundaries can be game-changers, and individuals need to step up and adapt. As for B, I beg to differ - teams are crucial for institutional change. Unless you're the Incredible Hulk, you can't do it all alone!

Hmm, this seems tricky. I think C, E, and F are the correct answers. Crossing departmental boundaries can definitely help develop new performance criteria and enhance learning for change. But I'm not sure about teams continuing after their purpose has been served - that sounds like a recipe for endless meetings and no action!
