The study employs the survey questionnaires in gathering information from the respondents on significant items of cross cultural teams. Simple random sampling technique was applied on the homogenous population and identified sample respondent from larger pool of respondents. Logistic regression (optimal scaling) was applied on the data set. Managerial implication can be that organization should make Team in which members having similar language. Member having positive behavior among themselves in the team; Teams can do wonders. Lastly, delegation of power or authority has significant impact. If teams have significant power to do whatever they want to do and how to do it, then they feel relax and motivated to achieve targets.
