From the Inside Flap

Today's business leaders realize they can't succeed without the cooperation of others, whether through internal teams or external alliances. And that requires Partnering Intelligence (PQ). This landmark book provides a road map for anyone who uses strategic partnerships to achieve business goals and who wants to develop the partnering capabilities of teams, employees, and alliance partners.

In this updated second edition, Stephen Dent guides leaders in powering up their organizations' trust, interdependence, win-win attitudes, and mutually beneficial results. He brings his PQ Assessment, Six Partnering Attributes, Partnership Continuum, and other tools to life with an award-winning case study of the Bank of America-Exult, Inc., partnership and other new examples. Research with thousands of teams provides benchmarks for comparison. And clear explanations make it easy to apply the models and tools, including the all-new Win-Win Orientation Assessment.

Going beyond "teamwork," this breakthrough new edition of PARTNERING INTELLIGENCE proves that every organization can increase its Partnering Intelligence and create sustainable competitive advantage.
