Most projects or initiatives in today's organizations begin with the formation of a team, yet the majority of resources available for this core business activity are long on description and short on advice. 10 Steps to Successful Teams provides this missing practical, easy-to-implement advice. Using a holistic process-oriented approach, this book carefully guides readers through the process of building strong new teams or improving even the best existing teams. The book includes extensive assessments and original tools to help team leaders manage conflict and improve communication. You will find individual team member and leader self-assessments to help focus the team on getting results and identifying areas for improvement. One key feature of the book is a collection of tips for both team members and team leaders that are designed to give advice on what works in team environments and how to avoid common pitfalls. The book includes many expert contributors, including Trish Uhl, Ken Phillips, Lanie Jordan, Louann Swedberg, and Deborah Taber.
