The success of an organization depends on how well the managers are able to pair and relate individual goals of the employees to the overall organizational goal. So, the victory of an organization basically rests on how well the employees or team of workers are managed, led and motivated. However, as it is more easily said than done, managing groups or team of employees is the most challenging and complicated process or task than anything else in an organization. In the globalized scenario, where the organizations are operating in an open and global environment across the world, the process of team management has become even more challenging and complicated with people from very diverse backgrounds and races. Their cultural and social background commonly called as sociocultural base or origin has taken the challenge of managing teams effectively and efficiently to a much higher level or degree. The aim of this conceptual work is to understand the present or existing literature on team management, relate the process of team work or management to children through logical progression and develop an easily perceivable model which can be applied to any corner of the globe while managing teams.
