Book Synopsis

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER - ONE OF FORBES TOP 10 BUSINESS BOOKS OF 2024

ELEVATE LEADERSHIP TO TEAMSHIP.

In today's volatile, fast-paced, and decentralized business environment, even the most talented leaders can't succeed alone--they need to mobilize the full potential of the team.

The world's highest-performing organizations under-stand they need more than leadership to win--they need teamship. Teamship is a profound shift from today's hierarchical model to sharing the load among a team that elevates one another and the organization to achieve exponential results.

Based on more than twenty years of research with more than three thousand teams, world-renowned coach and bestselling author Keith Ferrazzi has cracked the code on what defines the top 15 percent of teams. In Never Lead Alone, Ferrazzi brings to life what is expected of teammates in teamship's new agile, inclusive, innovative, and challenge culture. Teamship combines:

Co-elevation behaviors--the teammates' com-mitment to pushing one another higher in aligned pursuit of the mission, andtwenty-first-century collaboration processes, prac-tices, and tools to transform team performance.

Through rigorous data, dozens of high-return prac-tices, and vivid case studies you will learn:

the 10 critical shifts to teamship, including peer-to-peer accountability, personal trust, shared feedback, team resilience, and adopting agile ways of working;how to agree on a new high-performance, high-integrity team social contract; andapproaches to leveraging collaborative technology and AI.

Never Lead Alone is an essential step-by-step road map for every teammate and all leaders on their team's journey from average to extraordinary.
