Working as a Team

We just started a class on Team Work.  It has been great so far!  We have been put into groups that are to act as our 'team'.  We are working as if we are going into the tribe together.  We have been going through a document that helps to answer a lot of questions regarding how we will work together as a team and how we would handle different situations.  Questions like: what are your teams expectations of field leadership?  What will you do if you have an issue with a co-workers, or what steps will you take to resolve the conflict?  What is your opinion on having national coworkers (co-workers that are native to the country you are serving in)?
