August Book Club Q&A Closing Webinar:
A Team of Leaders:
Empowering Every Member to Take Ownership,
Demonstrate Initiative, and Deliver Results

About the Book:

Workplace teams are supposed to harness employees’ talents to tackle challenges. But the reality often falls short…

Now imagine having a team where everyone steps up and performs all of the leadership tasks. Imagine a team that is constantly sharing knowledge and pushing the envelope–one that does long term planning and produces outstanding performance.

A Team of Leaders shows readers how to design systems that nurture the leadership potential of every employee–the key to creating high-performance teams.

The book’s proven principles and techniques include:

  • The Five-Stage Team Development Model that maps the transition from traditional to self-directed teams
  • Best practices in team process design
  • A Team Value Creation Tool that allows members to appreciate the significance of what they contribute each day
  • Visual Management
  • And more

Filled with real-world examples, this fresh approach transforms passive groups of disparate people into effective teams of leaders–workplace teams that work!

Join Stewart Liff (LinkedIn profile), Tolitha Lewis (LinkedIn profile), and  Paul Gustavson (LinkedIn profile) as they discuss how to capitalize on the value of every employee.

Do You Have A Virtual Team?

Having team members that work in diverse geographical locations has become the norm, and we are more connected than ever through the advances in web conferencing.

How employees interact with each other has changed dramatically, and such technological conveniences have brought on their own sets of challenges as a result.

Decision making and communication between teams changes, team conflict takes on a different shape, and team engagement requires different approaches.

So what are the implications of this rising shift in how teams work together?

In this webcast, Cyndi Sax (LinkedIn profile) Senior Vice President of Consulting Services at Caliper and George Brough (LinkedIn profile) Vice President of Organizational Development Services will discuss:

  • The differences between virtual and on-site teams
  • The challenges and implications of managing and working in virtual or mixed teams

  • How to run effective virtual meetings
