In reviewing team building principles, the nurse manager should establish guidelines for meetings, such as setting a schedule, reviewing unit progress, setting standards, and talking to each member of the team. It is important to ensure that no groupthink occurs and that everyone has the opportunity to voice their concerns. ReferenceHarkness, G. & DeMarco, R. (2012).
