without any context it's difficult to say, but simply 'cells' could fit in just as well as anything else, if the context makes it obvious that the subject is 'work cells'
Peer comment(s):

Another option for you.
Skills can be taught and knowledge acquired, but motivating individuals to produce quality work requires effective management skills within the organization. There are various management models and theories that expound the virtues of role integration, flexible **work groups**, delegation of responsibility and other incentives. These are all aimed at motivating individuals and gaining their commitment to achieving quality goals.

Given the additional context I think "WORK/WORKING GROUP" would suit the context well.
Noun 1. working group - a group of people working together temporarily until some goal is achieved; "the working group was supposed to report back in two weeks"
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/working group
work groups
Formal and informal groups in the workplace that collaborate as a team on work tasks, for short or for indefinite periods of time. The quality circles movement makes work groups central to the production system, with responsibility to study and resolve production problems.
