A Concept of Team Control in Organizations
Summary:
This study aims to develop the conceptual and methodological foundations for team control in organizations. It presents a concept of team control, which combines classical and modern achievements of a number of management and mathematical theories. The concept is based on a comprehensive toolkit which includes management and advanced mathematical tools from the theory of fuzzy logic and the theory of fuzzy subsets. The study consists of four parts. Part one clarifies the author’s concept regarding the nature and characteristics of a team. Part two elaborates on the conceptual foundations of the team control process. Part three contains the author’s model of team control in an organization.

A PERFORMANCE MODEL
FOR LECTURING TEAMS AT TODOR KABLESHKOV UNIVERSITY
OF TRANSPORT
Summary:
This paper presents an original performance model of lecturing teams at Todor Kableshkov University of Transport, Sofia. The model is based on various managerial, social and behavioural theories. It combines classical and up-to-date theoretical achievements with regulations and established practices at Todor Kableshkov University of Transport. The specific features of the model relate primarily to the indicators proposed for measuring the results of the lecturing teams at the university. The paper consists of two parts. Part one presents the conceptual basis on which the performance model of lecturing teams at Todor Kableshkov University of Transport is developed, as well as the definitions of some basic notions related to the control on teams. Part one also reviews the team model as the basis of the performance model which is proposed. Part two explains the specific features and the determinants of the performance model and introduces the indicators applied to the formation, activity and results of the lecturing teams at the university
