Get the most out of your team
When a team is working well, it is an exciting, stimulating, and successful place to be. It is fun to be involved. When a team is performing badly, however, it can be demotivating, exhausting, and unproductive.
A new book from Pearson entitled How to Coach Your Team: Release team potential and hit peak performance aims to show managers how they can up their game and take their team to the next level.
Authors Pam Jones, Viki Holton, and Angela Jowitt build on interviews with team leaders from across sectors and around the world to get to the heart of how managers can create a coaching culture and deliver gamechanging performance.
In this practical, hands-on book, they provide tools and techniques to help managers build energy and motivation, foster greater collaboration, increase creativity, and improve productivity.
