## Description

Deep teambuilding insight from an unexpected, yet utterly logical source The Ideal Team Player is an essential teambuilding guide presented in fable form. Bestselling author Patrick Lencioni continues the story from The Five Dysfunctions as we follow Jeff Shanley to Napa, where he draws on the lessons learned from DecisionTech CEO Kathryn Petersen to take over the family business. Frustrated by a series of bad hires, Jeff turns to a local college basketball coach to learn the secrets of building a great team. You'll learn along with Jeff as the coach relates the three major traits that impact the team's success more than any technical approach and the teambuilding recipe that yields great results every time. A nonfiction model follows the story to show you how to implement these ideas in the real world, giving you a workable foundation for finding the right people for the job. Building a great team is a complex endeavour. It's not as simple as collecting the right skill sets—the human element is actually a more critical factor in long-term performance. This book shows you how to put the right people together to achieve your goals every time. •Discover the types of people every team needs •Learn the three critical traits used to evaluate team players •Utilize evaluation criteria on an ongoing basis •Customize a proven system for building your ideal team The word "synergy" is often dismissed as a buzzword, but it's really an essential ingredient to a successful team. A collection of people with varying talents, skills, and perspectives can either clash and crash, or feed off one another's energy to produce incredible results. The Ideal Team Player shows you how to evaluate your prospects and pick the stars that shine brightest together.

Review: Simple, essential team building guidelines - Essential reading to anyone who wants to build good teams - you may intuitively know what makes a good team player but this book sets it out so it is much easily to understand and implement. Also deals with the sticky problem of those who aren't so good - and who is? I found the format of the book a little to samey as his other books but it is an excellent way of getting the message across so I won't complain too much - those new to Patrick Lencioni should enjoy it.
Review: Humorous and a real eye-opener - Amazing book, found it transformed my thinking and shed light onto why a team doesn't work properly and how to address this. Written in a humorous style with plenty of practical examples and materials at the end which are useful.
