From the Paper:

"One of the most important factors in successfully making changes is having members from key departments cooperating on the changes (Daft 398). The task force best allows this to occur. Employee commitment towards the new activities is also vital to their success. Employee commitment is increased in a task force since employees are more empowered and hence motivated. It is said that while the task force structure can be cumbersome, it is the most effective and creates the changes both effectively and efficiently (Chambers 169).
Flexibility and adaptability are also vital for uncertain times and the team structures provide this flexibility as workers become more multi-skilled. "
