Team Structure
The Project Management Team manages our various sub-teams and keeps us on schedule. There are also team leaders for each sub-team. Generally, older, more experienced members of the team are team leaders or are members of the Project Management Team. Even though sub-teams work separately, their work is eventually fused together.
