The soul of a team : a modern-day fable for winning teamwork / by Dungy, Tony,author.(CARDINAL)485580;
Includes bibliographical references.The problem -- The plan -- The progress -- The payoff -- Putting the principles into practice -- Vipers personnel: character list.For most people, succeeding in life requires mastering the art of teamwork. Whether at work, school, church, or home, virtually everyone is part of a team--and when they work well, teams can accomplish more than individuals working by themselves. But not all teams are created equal. When a team isn't functioning well, individual strengths can be undermined and weaknesses accentuated, making the work environment a terrible place to be. So what does a truly effective team environment look like, and how can you create one within your own organization? As a former Super Bowl-winning coach, Tony Dungy is an expert at building and bringing out the best in a team. Drawing on his experiences from years of coaching and working with other leaders, this football fable lays out four essential principles practiced by truly effective teams. Telling the story of a fictional NFL team looking for a turnaround, The Soul of a Team not only identifies some of the most common issues that hold a team back but also lays out a game plan for winning teamwork. Whether you aspire to be a better leader or a stronger team player, "The Soul of a Team" will show you how to contribute to a stronger, healthier, more productive team destined for success.

X-teams : how to build teams that lead, innovate, and succeed / by Ancona, Deborah G.(Deborah Gladstein),author.(CARDINAL)807858; Bresman, Henrik,author.(CARDINAL)877945;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 175-180) and index."You build a team around top-notch talent. The team members work well together; they're committed to the mission and highly motivated to perform. Yet the results are disappointing. You're not seeing creativity and flexibility. You're not getting breakthrough ideas. 'Good' teams build camaraderie, confidence in their abilities, and a solid process for working together. But these internal dynamics-while positive in themselves-can create a wall between the team and the outside world. And that wall can prevent the team from adapting to change and delivering value to the organization. In this updated edition with a new preface and new research, Deborah Ancona and Henrik Bresman describe an externally focused team model-the X-team-that is even more relevant today than when it was first introduced. With their distinctively flexible membership and leadership structure, X-teams continuously reach outward to fuel the innovation process. With new examples and research from organizations such as Microsoft, Takeda, and the Museum of Modern Art, Ancona and Bresman show you how to build X-teams that: Keep pace with shifts in markets, technologies, cultures, and your competition; innovate by moving quickly from generating ideas to executing and diffusing them throughout your organization; and employ 'distributed leadership' to unlock crucial information, expertise, and new ways of working together-wherever these qualities reside within or outside your company. In an increasingly complex and ever-changing world, where adaptability and creativity are paramount to an enterprise's success-and even its survival-X-Teams is your handbook for winning"--
