Many large, hierarchical organizations are
segmentalist in their approach to management.
Nonetheless, such organizations are capable of
supporting integrated, team approaches to particular
types of communication problems. For such
approaches to be successful, however, there must be
strong managerial commitments to team support. This
paper discusses how committed leadership, specific
production guidelines, and empowerment enhanced
the activities of an Air Force writing team assembled
to help revise and edit Air Force Policy Directives
containing corporate level guidance on a variety of
topics. View all 2240 works published by STC Proceedings |

Abstract: Many large, hierarchical organizations are

Nonetheless, such organizations are capable of
supporting integrated, team approaches to particular
types of communication problems. For such
approaches to be successful, however, there must be
strong managerial commitments to team support. This
paper discusses how committed leadership, specific
production guidelines, and empowerment enhanced
the activities of an Air Force writing team assembled
to help revise and edit Air Force Policy Directives
