Go Team! July 31, 2008 Take Your Team to the Next Level (Berrett-Koehler, $14.95)
Whether you're a fourth grader working on a group project or a high level manager working on a team, everyone has had bad experiences working in groups. There are those who refuse to work and prefer to add their workload to your plate; people who are happy to help, but whose incompetence on the matter makes them more of a hindrance than an aid; and even those who are qualified and willing, but simply don’t see eye-to-eye with you. No matter what type of difficult worker you face on your team, the key is to fix the problem and generate productivity.
Go Team!, written by Ken Blanchard, Alan Randolph and Peter Grazier, seeks to teach managers the skills needed to form an elusive strong and efficient team. The authors offer their expert advice through discussions and case examples, and provide a three-step process to take your team to the next level. Learn how to better incorporate all members' ideas; how to use your time more efficiently; increase the productivity of the group; effectively and fairly delegate work; and much more.
