• The purpose of the project team is to interpret the feedback from step 2 and to make practical recommendations to positively align the perspectives of the entities in the employment relationship (employer and employee)
• Forming the Project team for these purposes requires a cross-function representation, i.e., a replica of the organisation-at-large.
• To do this the consultant works with the organisation to form a disproportionate stratified sample.
• The composition therefore may look like this:

2 Top Managers
4 Middle Managers
8 Workforce members

• Within these three organisational strata, a close as possible representation of the organisation needs to be considered. For example, all functional areas need to be represented in at least one of the three strata
• The legitimacy of this team is based on the degree it reflects the organisation-at-large.
