Description

A complete workbook for forming, assessing, and developing successful project teams Written by the author of the bestselling Effective Project Management, Second Edition (0-471-36028-7), this book offers a new and unique approach to developing project teams: treat the development of the team just as you would the development of software. Wysocki walks readers through the key phases for assigning project teams, supplementing the discussion with working examples garnered from his years of experience as a consultant to IT and software development project teams. Readers will learn how to use Wysocki's project team analysis tools to analyze their own teams and gain valuable insight into the five typical personality types that most teams will face.
