Introduction

Congratulations on deciding to read this book! You have taken a proactive approach to team leadership.

You see, you have two choices as a leader.

You can take a proactive or a reactive approach. The reactive way is the hopeful, passive way – hoping that the team will function well without any particular help or intervention from you. This approach rarely works, which is why we firmly recommend the proactive way, where you take charge and decide to create the climate and circumstances needed for your team to function successfully. And that’s what this book is all about – successful teams. It gives you straight-talking solutions to those common team challenges, which you will be able to relate to.
