3rd Edition: Efficient collaboration among team members must be ensured at all times. To achieve this, team leadership is required to address not only the individual team members but also the developmental stage of the entire team. This book systematically guides you through four phases of team development: belonging, responsibility, openness, and termination. The entire team learns how to recognize these phases and what risks and opportunities are present in each one. The team leader discovers how to adjust their behavior in each phase to lead and support their team effectively. As a result, everyone understands what actions need to be taken to develop a sense of unity, constructively resolve conflicts, and utilize competencies effectively.
