Collective action--not individual heroism--is what makes teams effective and creates sustainable change in organizations In this much-anticipated follow-on to his best-seller TOOLS FOR TEAM EXCELLENCE, Gregory Huszczo unlocks the secret of what separates the great teams built on collaboration and partnership from the also-rans. TOOLS FOR TEAM LEADERSHIP introduces the critical "X-factor" in team success--leadership--and delivers an advanced set of tools and strategies to help anyone master the role of team leader.

Grounded in the author's practical frontline experience with hundreds of teams and backed by solid research and instruments, including the powerful Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (r) assessment, the book explores the essence of leadership in a team environment. It identifies the chief responsibilities of every team leader and delivers a power-packed toolbox for use in analyzing a team's strengths and weaknesses, creatively brainstorming strategies and tactics, generating options and facilitating consensus, and implementing action plans that help teams help themselves.

TOOLS FOR TEAM LEADERSHIP covers team building for both new and existing teams, with special help for team building at the top, and includes a self-study assessment at the end of each chapter to help turn key learning concepts into a plan of action. Filled with more than 80 tools--all-new and field-tested diagnostic questionnaires, needs assessments, organizational surveys, sample training modules, and exercises--this guide puts the power of participative team leadership into the hands of every manager, trainer, consultant, and member struggling to help teams succeed..
