Interdependence amongst team members for task related work is an important factor of differentiation between types of teams. The focus of the present study is on the ability of team members to handle different tasks interdependencies and the communication styles of team members as they handle team task responsibilities. The dominant communication style displayed by the team members impacts the team work and the results indicate that team members with certain styles are more suitable for task work with pooled, sequential or reciprocal interdependence. These communication styles help in fostering handling of task responsibilities of interdependent nature and the team work will proceed efficiently and effectively.
