A Team of Leaders shows readers how to design systems that nurture the leadership potential of every employee - the key to creating high-performance teams. The book's proven principles and techniques include: The Five-Stage Team Development Model that maps the transition from traditional to self-directed teams; Best practices in team process design; a Team Value Creation Tool that allows members to appreciate the significance of what they contribute each day; Visual Management; and more.
