Good management entails team formation and the analysis and an understanding of how the team works. Teams basically function through a certain chain of development that entails forming, norming, performing and storming.

The management should seek to form the balanced team in terms of gender, diversified skills, experiences, wide range of perspective, as well as personalities. On the same line, the strong team formation entails the incorporation of all the viewpoints and perspectives of the team members that appear to be encouraging and that can steer the team forward to make it underscore the rivals.
In such perspective, the motivation of the team members becomes the vital approach to keep the team intact and focused towards its objectives. The other skill required to boost the team is effective communication in the team between the team leader, management of the firm, and the team members. Accordingly, the efficiency of the team members and their experience has to be realized through the quality of output. Such can be bettered through the use of both nonwage and wage incentives to maintain the team and avoid its separation to look for better pays elsewhere. Such are the approaches to curb deviance in the team formed and ensuring it is united for the common goal.

The selection criteria should be made in such way that the selected members are the best among the applicants- through transparency in the selection criteria. The job matrix of the team to be selected ought to be put in place to ensure that the right individuals with the required skills and experience are chosen. The use of the job selection matrix
