Are you interested in harnessing the power of your employees by
implementing a team-based organization? Have you implemented teams but
continue to struggle to achieve consistent performance? Have you struggled
with implementation because you did not have a clear method to follow? Well,
if any of your answers is yes, this book is a must for your shopping cart.
Finally, here is a complete, practical, proven guide for implementing
successful teams. Michael Regan explains clearly and logically why most
teams fail and then he lists the consecutive steps and simple methods to use
to ensure that your organization successfully implements teams. After
struggling through team implementation at Alcatel for several years, this
book opened my eyes because it clearly indicated what we did wrong and also
how to avoid those pitfalls. I recommend this book to anyone who is
interested in implementing teams right the first time as well as those who
are still struggling through implementation and looking for answers.
