Choosing a Team Leader
2©2015 ITAP International, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
For a company that has many important projects, it’s tempting to tap the same experienced leader.- The experienced leader has a good record
of success- The company does not want to put any of
the projects at risk of failure

• But when the same team leader is selected to lead over and over again, this could have a negative impact on:
- The team leader- The team and its performance- Retention of emerging talent (e.g. “talent
to watch”)
