Pulling Together The Power of Teamwork
Ask any group of people to describe what it takes to perform well as a team & you get a fairly complete list of essentials. Ask the same group to work on a project, however, & prepare for battle. Observe how quickly people bypass the principles of teamwork & behave in a "me-opic" or "what's in it for me?" manner. This raises a natural question. Does society condition people to be non-team players? And if this is true, what can business leaders do to pull people together? PULLING TOGETHER answers these questions. The 200-page paperback offers examples, charts, diagrams & even cartoons to help managers perform more effectively. Ted Gedra, Executive Vice President for Wolverine Worldwide, agrees. "...Finally, a book that realistically addresses the communication & motivational problems in everyday business...a definite must for today's manager who wants to lead effectively & break through the paradigms that stand in the way of real progress." Author John Murphy is President of Venture Management Consultants, a firm specializing in creating high performance work environments. Murphy is a graduate of & former quarterback for the University of Notre Dame. To order, call (616) 942-2525. Books are $12.00 each, or $10.00 each for ten or more.
