The Loyalist Team

How Trust, Candor, and Authenticity Create Great Organizations

De: Linda Adams, Abby Curnow-Chavez, Audrey Epstein, Rebecca Teasdale, Jody Berger

Narrado por: Elisabeth Rodgers

Great teams are built and maintained with great intention, though they can make it look deceptively easy. Too many teams engage in dysfunctional behaviors or fall into territorialism, apathy, and unproductive relationships. The result? An overwhelmed, unengaged, and stressed-out workforce that settles for average or poor performance.

Here, four authors with a combined century of management experience show readers how every team can be extraordinary. The authors introduce their field-tested Loyalist Team 3D assessment that allows anyone to get to the heart of why teams break down, identify the weaknesses in their own team, and build a Loyalist Team. This kind of team has members who ensure each other's success as they work to ensure their own, operate with absolute candor, and value loyalty and authenticity to deliver results, create a healthy work environment, and help companies succeed. The Loyalist Team is a must-read for anyone who wants their team to achieve extraordinary results.

loyalist guidelines

What a great read about where you think you team is and how to work on getting them to a loyalist team. Very excited to get to work with our team.

redundant

a bit too repetitive but makes valuable points. chapters 8 and 9 are the most important.

book runs very Short about organizational behaviou

the book explains only the emotional part of teams. there's much more to have a team working properly then what is explained in this book. this is more like this is the way I would help you with your organizational challenge rather than a comprehensive approach to management.
