Book Synopsis
Build High-Performing Teams for Extraordinary Business Results
Imagine a workplace where team members not only excel individually but thrive collectively--where collaboration is an expectation deeply ingrained in a culture that drives success. That's the goal of transformational people leader and team-building expert Ed Cohen and his expert contributors--Rahul Andrews, Nandini Darsi, Emily King Grandinetta, Sheina Laws, Priscilla Nelson, and Anil Santhapuri.
Transforming Teams is a method and mindset that puts trust, collaboration, and cultural intelligence at the heart of team success. Cohen and his colleagues have spent the last 25 years developing this six-phase approach for building relationship-centered organizations. This framework has been tested and proven to work in more than 150 global organizations--from startups to Fortune 500 companies like Booz Allen Hamilton, Western Union, and Warner Bros. Discovery.
Organization leaders, TD and HR professionals, and coaches who want to foster business cultures in which people feel connected to their work and one another will find this book invaluable. You'll learn to break through conflicts, reduce turnover, increase engagement, and overcome dysfunction by aligning team behaviors with shared values and strategic goals. Use the real-world case studies and practical tools to transform your teams and drive success no matter your organization's size or industry.
