Description and Table of Contents

Description

This highly anecdotal book, depicts realistic situations involving seven different team cultures, both good and bad as the authors have observed them in organizations: Some teams are a mess, some are dead, some are mediocre, one has the strength for promoting excellence in terms of productivity, creativity and satisfaction. Readers will be able to identify which of the seven approaches to teamwork they find themselves in. The authors give readers a large number of instruments by which they can measure themselves and their teams.
