    Notes: Although cross-functional teams are often used for new product development (NPD), many companies struggle to implement them successfully. Through in-depth interviews with 71 team members from 18 companies in a variety of technology-based industries, this study focuses on the experiences of the people who actually do much of the work of NPD (team members) and explores their perceptions and attitudes about cross-functional team assignments. The purpose of our study is to identify the factors that influence and shape NPD team member experiences. Our results suggest that although NPD work can be rewarding and productive, NPD team members are often neglected by other team members, project leaders, and senior management. This sense of neglect has important implications for all of these constituencies, but particularly for senior management.

    Notes: Examines how marketing research affects cycle time (the time from product conceptualization to product introduction), in technology-driven industries. The key research question to be examined in this study is: how do the collection, dissemination and utilization of marketing research information affect cycle time? Focuses on the telecommunications industry as an industry in which technology often drives the dynamics in the marketplace. Presents an empirical examination of the key research question in an exploratory study of hardware firms in the telecommunications industry. The results suggest that the collection of marketing research does not impact cycle time significantly. However, increased frequency of dissemination of the information collected via marketing research can increase cycle time. Finds also that, while the utilization ofmarketing research in designing products can increase cycle time, utilization of marketing research for strategy development can actually reduce cycle time. Thus, incorporation of marketing research in new product development can aid the introduction of new products in a timely manner.

    Notes: The increasing use of cross-functional teams for new product development (NPD) belies the difficulty managers face in creating teams that are truly effective. Effectiveness depends, in part, on having members who are satisfied with their team and their project. This article reports the results of 71 interviews with members of NPD teams, with a particular focus on the drivers of team member satisfaction. These drivers include: team characteristics, clear project goals, clarity about evaluation and rewards, effective leadership, management support, and manageable levels of conflict and stress. To create satisfied team members, we discuss actions that can be taken at the senior management, project leader and team member level.
