writing team

Our team at work is on the threshold of having an actual writing team! It's pretty exciting really but I was wondering if any of you have had any experience being a part of a writing team. Any thoughts or suggestions about how you think those sorts of dynamics work? I'm not sure what kind of input I'm looking for, so whatever you've got will be helpful. What I'm really interested in is how to work together on a strengths-based basis rather than being departmentalized again. Thoughts?
