Synopsis

While teams work well on the whole, smooth and successful teamwork doesn't happen overnight. Whether you're a team leader or member, you can expect plenty of growing pains and rough spots. Resolving them together makes the team stronger, but where do you begin? This unique book is brimming with practical, proven ideas. It helps you address such crucial questions as: how do you make team decisions when people strongly disagree?, how do you deal with sticky personal issues with a fellow team member?, what do you do when team meetings seem like a waste of time?, how do you handle people who don't want to be part of the team?, what response do you make when some people won't implement the team decision?, and how can the leader help the team without dominating it?
