Full Description
The Science of High-Performing Teams describes how leaders need to "be" to manage teams, what they need to understand about human behavior to create teams from groups of individuals, and how to think about some of the basic - and more advanced - types of leader behaviors and group dynamics that often result in successful teamwork. The book will help readers assess their surroundings and their team's environment to make good decisions in the moment. Everything in this book is grounded in decades of rigorous research on team success, drawing on insights from countless scholars across generations.
While "leadership" is all around us, most people in positions of authority or influence have little formal training or education in how to use that authority and influence to manage the teams for which they are responsible. The Science of High-Performing Teams explains and exemplifies the current state of research on team dynamics and leadership. It serves as a tool and training resource for aspiring leaders; new managers in professional settings; organizational consultants focusing on interpersonal dynamics; students enrolled in courses focused on those topics; and the secondary and post-secondary faculty who oversee those courses.
