This week we are reviewing teams and how to develop a successful team. In hospitality, this can be a bit tricky because different areas of a hotel and restaurant tend to stay together rather than working across areas or sometimes even having knowledge of different departments. A great example is the ongoing front and back-of-the-house issues that crop up often in a restaurant. In this week's discussion, we will talk about your experience with teams.

In your discussion post, share the following:

• If you were a new manager of a hotel or restaurant, outline 3 steps you would implement in building your team.
• Discuss an experience you had with a team - describe the reasons why the team was successful and/or not successful.
