Nilsen, Dianne L. Ignition: A Guide to Building High-Performing Teams (0578603160)
Teams are the fundamental building blocks of today's organizations, yet only 1 in 5 are high performing. Most teams need help, and Ignition provides practical guidance on how to overcome common team challenges. Featured in the book are 12 case studies, complete with off-site designs and step-by-step instructions for facilitating 40 field-tested team improvement activities. Team leader and facilitator support materials, such as downloadable Power Point decks, forms, handouts and relevant articles are also included. The book content is fully integrated with the Team Assessment Survey, which provides teams with benchmarking feedback on performance.
