This is an emerging workspace for those concerned with Brand Action Teams. For example, with Dr Yunus' Grameen brand I am currently a volunteer checking out who is forming what Brand Action teams. We are mapping what I regard to be the collaboration  brand  network architecture with most chance of transforming human sustainability. 24 years ago by dad forecast we'd need a Nobel Laureate inspiring a worldwide search connceting upo at least 30000 community rising projects if the globalisation we designed was not to go the crashing way of Orwell's Big Brother. So there is a lot to learn that is not the MBA system view of teams at all; nor is it anything to do with a very important but different type of team that go and staff a physical community  (building)for a long period of time . A companion resource at facebook - is mapping 3 person triangular relationship systems for sustainability (ie early reseonse and early detect conflict) built round particular edgy leaders http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2434503798

Findings on Brand Action Teams

Since Brands have the budget to make all of an organsiations promises we assume the projects that innovate where they are going next will be extremely entrepreneurially tense



This kind of team is best fit by starting up with 3 people's leadershio inputs - the biggest believer in the doability of the mission, the social coordinator of the misison's deepest human relationship needs and flws, the resource checkmaker. Sometimes these skilss will overlap but its ama=zing how the oustide world will demand difefrent people speak to confirm these roles are prgressing in unison

Moreover every combinatorial interaction flows so going above 3  -one triangle and 3 pairwise fkows is difficult unless you are used to very detailed mapping -an activity that needs to be done micro to inter- macro.  Eg 4 people contain 4 triangular relationships and 6 pair relationships

5 people: 10 triangular, and 10 pair

6 people 20 triangular and 15 pairs

etc
