Book description
In Volume 3 of The Parker Team Series we learn that "Effective leadership is effective leadership. Some universal truths cut across all types of teams... Effective leaders have a clear vision and are able to communicate that vision... They develop a sense of urgency about the team's work, involve team members in goal-setting and decision-making, and foster a climate of openness and honesty. People want to work with them..." Everything you need to know to make you a better team leader is contained in this small book, from self-assessing your strengths and weaknesses to setting performance goals to tactfully influencing those on your team. There is no better value in team training materials than a Parker Team Series title!
