Book Nook:
What Makes the
Ideal Team Player?
by Maree Ferguson,
Founder & Director, Dietitian Connection
Calling all managers: if you
haven’t read this new book
I’m about to recommend,
you must get a copy today!
But first, to back up: I am a big fan of Patrick
Lencioni’s books. On my list of favourite books
of all time are some of his older titles, “The
Five Dysfunctions of a Team”; and “Death by
Meeting”. Lencioni’s books are such an easy
read, as they are written as fables or stories, and
then the key messages are summarised at the
end of the book.
Now, I’ve just finished reading his latest book,
“The Ideal Team Player”, and I’m so excited to
be able to share a review of it with you. This
concept is especially useful not only for those
who manage teams, but also for you as an
individual, so that you work on possessing the
qualities most sought after in a team player.
