Team Building

In Team-Building: From the Bench to the Boardroom, veteran basketball coach Pat Sullivan takes the lessons he learned during forty-four years of successfully building athletic teams to teach business leaders practical skills in business management. With an emphasis on the benefits of team-building, Pat shows how managing teams in the workplace is no different from managing teams on the basketball court - and that in either venue, you can build winning teams using twenty core concepts. He explores the principles of good athletic athletic management - such as setting clear expectations, dealing with failure, and listening to the team- and teaches you how to apply those concepts in the workplace, taking care to acknowledge different business leadership styles and encouraging more managers to reflect on their own team building philosophies and policies. Team-Building: From the Bench to the Boardroom will be an insightful, practical addition to any collection of team building books for work.
