Workplace teams need rules to be effective, just as professional sports teams do. This problem-solving ready-reference lays down the guidelines for team leaders and members. It covers the human factors and nitty-gritty details that can hamper teamwork, and discusses how to:

  • define the roles and responsibilities of team members
  • select team members and encourage positive behavior
  • facilitate participation at team meetings
  • deal with the fear of losing control
  • evaluate and reward teams
  • determine what kind of training to offer

The author uses bullet points to make tips and rules easy to grasp, and end-of-chapter questions and answers to illuminate key issues.
