Abstract: Theories on collaboration and team dynamics emphasize the importance of shared goals and mutual trust for effective teamwork. Tuckman's stages of group development (1965) highlight the importance of trust-building, conflict resolution, and role clarity in team success. In addition, research on empowering leadership (Ahearne, Mathieu, & Rapp, 2005) emphasizes how delegating responsibility and providing autonomy enhance team motivation and performance.
