  * Example: Growth Pod in a matrix hierarchy organization

### How to create a new Team?

* Enter a **unique team name** and **description** so employees can identify it.
* Assign a **Team Owner** by entering their name.
* Add **Followers** to notify them and ensure they automatically follow the team.
