True

Explanation:

A team of eight individuals from the same department who meet for a few hours each week to discuss ways of improving quality, efficiency, and the work environment are most likely a self-managed work team.

A self-managed work team is a self-organized, semi-autonomous small group of employees whose members determine, plan, and manage their day-to-day activities and duties under reduced or no supervision.

A self-managed work team can also be referred to as a self directed team or self-managed natural work team.

B) false

Explanation:

A self managed team is a self-organized and semi-autonomous group whose team members perform highly interdependent jobs and manage their day to day activities. They usually operate with little or no supervision, and share a common objective.
