About this title

About the Author

Michael Cardus has a developed focused expertise on team building, leadership and organizational change issues, working with a variety of businesses and organizations. Issues frequently address development of high functioning teams, retention of talent, innovative process mapping, interpersonal and intergroup conflict, coaching of leaders, and facilitating behavioral skills to increase organizational and personal effectiveness.

Create-Learning Team Building & Leadership strives in every interaction to; Make Teams & Leaders Better by improving team processes and individual effectiveness, that result in increased productivity & people who love the work they do. Our core belief is that by focusing on the strengths and similarities that people on teams already possess, teams begin to view their sameness as opposed to their differences. When teams see sameness and learn to value differences as points of strength, then information starts to be shared and team accountability comes into being. The end result of these processes is increased retention of team members, increased team member satisfaction and increased profit. Michael Cardus is Create-Learning Team Building & Leadership. His Consulting, Facilitation, Training and Coaching results in increased retention of staff, increased satisfaction with work, increased collaboration and information sharing within and between departments, increased accountability of success and failures, increased knowledge transfer, increased trust as well as speed of project completion and decision making of Leaders, Teams and Organizations.

Review

The "Infinite Loops" game is a tried and true activity for a reason but oddly, few know how to get the most out of the activity - - luckily, Michael does. The variations he shares are wonderful and best of all, Michael provides detailed debriefing (processing) strategies which is so important. - Tom Heck of IATFConnect.com

This book is a great guide to help teams learn how to see the same situation from different perspectives, develop solutions, practice, and have the skills in place to deal with the issue, no matter how it might change. - Jim Hooper 4H Camp Bristol Hills
