This article discusses both how transdisciplinary teams were built and how the teams developed their courses at the University of Denver, Daniels College of Business. It explores recruitment and selection of team members; team size, discipline, representation, and the trade-offs involved; and the relationship between the personalities of team members and course pedagogy. The article also examines two different approaches (deductive and inductive) used by teams, discusses team process and management, and finally relates experiences involving the teaching materials themselves.
