Explanation:
There are certain necessary conditions required for a market to operate as a monopoly. These conditions are not generally met in the real world. This is the reason why monopolies are very rare not so common in the real world.
A monopoly is a market structure where there is a single producer selling a product with no close substitutes. In the real world, almost all products have substitutes.
Also for a monopoly to operate there should be a restriction on entry and exit of firms which is difficult to hold in the real world.

Answer: problem-solving teams
Explanation: group of individuals assembled to work on a project that involves resolving one or more issues that have already arisen or to deal effectively with issues as they arise. In a business context, a problem solving team will typically be formed for a limited time frame incorporating staff from different organizational levels with various relevant skill sets.Problem Solving Teams are temporary structures that bring together leaders and team members from across the organization to focus on solving a specific problem. The benefits are many, including not just a solved problem, but also a more resilient organization, a stronger social network and a growing cohort of problem solvers with increased skills and abilities. This approach draws from many influences, including complexity science, social network theory, military doctrine, flight crews, and emergency responders. We have been experimenting with this approach across several areas that involve multiple geographies and multiple functions.
