Contemporary business organizations are increasingly structuring work around teams because teams can lead to
substantial improvement in both the quality and the quantity of a firm's services and products. But, effective
team development and organizing work around teams challenges a number of traditional management approaches and
structures in an organization. This book was written for managers to understand the complex issues associated with
teams and to develop the tools they need to increase their effectiveness as team designers, leaders, and members.
