## Overview

The **Teams** module allows organizations to group users into functional units within departments.\
Teams help define **ownership**, **responsibility**, and **access boundaries** across products, assessments, and workflows.

Each team belongs to a department and can have a designated **team lead**, multiple members, and a clear scope of responsibility.

***

## Teams List

The Teams page displays all teams configured in the organization, along with their department association and member visibility.

Each team card shows:

* **Team name**
* **Parent department**
* **Short description**
* **Member avatars and count**

This view gives administrators a quick snapshot of how users are organized across the organization.

Clicking on a team opens the **Team Details** page.

### Team Info Section

This section provides editable metadata about the team:

* **Team Lead** — The primary owner of the team
* **Team Name** — Display name used across the platform
* **Description** — Explains the team’s role or responsibility

These fields help define accountability and ownership across workflows.

## Team Members

Below the Team Info section is the **Members Table**, listing all users assigned to the team.

Each row displays:

* **Member name**
* **Email address**
* **Lead status**
* **Actions** (remove member)

The table supports search, pagination, and column controls for easier management.
