COLLABORATIVE TEAMS Building Blocks of Collaborative Teams In this model, each group of people would embrace and utilize the building blocks of collaborative teams as an integral part of their work. In this sense, the structure embeds the components necessary for a culture of PLCs to exist. DuFour contends that collaborative teams are the building blocks for a PLC to exist thus in order for a team to be truly collaborative, these building blocks must be in place. The building blocks of collaborative
