СКАЧАТЬ a great ‘how’ book and providing enough examples that resonate with any leader or any individual in any team in any organization. Wow!”

– Beverly Kaye, Founder: Career Systems International; Co-Author: Love ‘Em or Lose ‘Em: Getting Good People to Stay and Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go: Career Conversations Employees Want

      “The introduction of this terrific book lays down the gauntlet: ‘We.. are not here to be inconsequential or do small work.' You already up for that challenge, I know. But you can't do it alone. You need good people with you. You need a team. And sadly, good teams are hard to find. 70 percent of employees report being part of a dysfunctional team. If you'd like to change that up, this may be the book for you. Do Great Work, Do it with a great team.”

– Michael Bungay Stanier, author of The Coaching Habit and Do More Great Work

      “You will find not only practical ideas that can be implemented immediately, but evidence-based strategies that provide a compelling framework for action. Look elsewhere for the usual management bromides in which talk is a substitute for action. This is a book about decisions – deciding to be great, deciding to take responsibility, and deciding to make a difference.”

– Douglas Reeves, Ph.D., Founder, Creative Leadership Solutions, author of the best-selling The Learning Leader

      “Using real-life examples from their multiple decades of consulting, Craig, Angie, and Victoria deliver a pragmatic way to inspire and earn high performance from every organization's most precious asset, the human beings who work there. I recommend this book to anyone looking to find the precious balance between high performance and humanity.”

– Henry J. Evans; Co-Author of Amazon Top 10 Business Book Step Up-Lead in Six Moments That Matter, and author of the best-selling Winning With Accountability-The Secret Language of High Performing Organizations

      “In life and business every new undertaking is a venture into the unknown. Craig, Angie, and Victoria have written a book that serves as a valuable roadmap for any leader who's looking to do more and be more. This book shows a way to achieve greater results with deeper satisfaction.”

      READ ME FIRST

      We are now ready to start on our way down the Great Unknown. We have an unknown distance yet to run; an unknown river yet to explore. What falls there are, we know not; what rocks beset the channel, we know not; what walls rise over the river, we know not.

– Major John Wesley Powell, in 1869, as the crew ofexplorers at his command descended into the unexploredGrand Canyon of the western United States1

      Your team is expected to deliver – big. Like Powell's crew nearly 150 years ago, perhaps you're even embarking on an ambitious plan to do something that's never been done before. Your Grand Canyon in front of you is deep and fraught with risks. And if you're like most, you begin your journey amid swirling changes and scarce resources.

      Even though you may believe you personally have what it takes to deliver on your responsibilities, you wonder: Is every person on the team truly committed and capable of bringing their best? Will the members of the team productively work together and become larger than the sum of individuals? And will the team be able to work its magic in a company culture that at times lacks alignment СКАЧАТЬ
