  We Shouldn't Wait for a Breakthrough in the Covid-19 Pandemic

  Gary P. Pisano

  The ultimate solutions to the Covid-19 crisis may be big breakthroughs in building massive test and trace capacity and developing vaccines and drug remedies. But in the meantime, we should not ignore the potential cumulative impact of the many small things we already know how to do or might try that together could make a big dent in the current crisis. Big problems typically get tackled through a series of small solutions, each of which on its own may not seem particularly important but that together can have a huge impact. Creating and implementing a “small steps” strategy, however, will require strong leadership.

  Into the Fray: Adaptive Approaches to Studying Novel Teamwork Forms

  Michaela Kerrissey, Patricia Satterstrom and Amy C. Edmondson

  Novel forms of teamwork—created by rapid change and growing diversity among collaborators—are increasingly common, and they present substantial methodological challenges for research. We highlight two aspects of new team forms that challenge conventional methods. Factors pertaining to change (e.g., in membership) create entitativity challenges such as whom to count as team members, while factors pertaining to difference (e.g., in expertise) create concordance challenges such as how to interpret disagreement in groups. We review research methods that are well suited to each of these specific challenges. We identify the particular challenges of studying teams that exhibit high difference and change simultaneously and call for adaptive methods that enable insight into how they work. Clarity about the dimensions of deviation from ideal team forms, along with shared terminology, will help researchers make and discuss tough methodological choices and assist reviewers in evaluating them.
