Creating Effective Teams

A Guide for Members and Leaders

By: Susan A. Wheelan

A practical guide for building and sustaining top-performing teams Based on the author’s many years of consulting experience with teams in the public and private sectors, Creating Effective Teams: A Guide for Members and Leaders describes why teams are important, how they function, and what makes them productive. Susan A. Wheelan covers in depth the four stages of a team—forming, storming, norming, and performing—clearly illustrating the developmental nature of teams and describing what happens in each stage. Separate chapters are devoted to the responsibilities of team leaders and team members. Problems that occur frequently in groups are highlighted, followed by what-you-can-do sections that offer specific advice. Real-life examples and questionnaires are used throughout the book, giving readers the opportunity for self-evaluation.

Team Implementation Issues

By: Michael M. Beyerlein,Douglas A. Johnson,Susan T. Beyerlein

Work teams in various forms are being introduced to organizations in both the private and public sectors at an increasing rate. Many work team programs are also failing. The papers in this volume bring together the latest thoughts about team implementation issues by the world's leading researchers. They also address some of the reasons why implementation efforts with teams fail and some of the proven ways of pursuing implementation. This book presents the conceptual frameworks that leading researchers have developed for addressing issues associated with the implementation of teams. Several chapters address cultural issues - across national boundaries and within single companies; several address measurement and appraisal issues; others address training and learning as key issues. The book begins with an overview chapter that reviews the lessons learned from prior team and change literatures; it closes with two chapters related to learning - two of the cornerstones to a successful implementation effort.

The Development of Community Engagement from Infancy to Adulthood

By: Susan Henney,Justin Hackett

The Development of Community Engagement from Infancy to Adulthood uses a developmental perspective to trace how individuals develop the cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and moral capacity to be actively engaged in their communities. It also provides an analysis of the role of volunteerism and civic engagement in an era of social division, shrinking budgets, and shrinking services. In order to support childhood and adolescent volunteerism, we must understand how children become adults who volunteer a lot, sometimes, or not at all. This book describes the development of volunteerism from theoretical, empirical, and practical viewpoints, starting from the earliest development of empathy, through the social institutions that help shape us, to adolescence and young adulthood. It concludes with an analysis of modern ways to engage young citizens in social action. In doing so it addresses the key question – how can we encourage and support the development of the behaviors, belief systems, and ecologies that will lead to volunteerism and community involvement in our citizens? With fresh and thought-provoking arguments and insights, this book will be of interest to all academics and students working within the fields of social work, social services, volunteer management, applied social psychology, community psychology, service learning, and sociology, as well as non-profit personnel and activists.

An Action Framework for Collaborating Across Time, Distance, Organization, and Culture

Business Without Boundaries

An Action Framework for Collaborating Across Time, Distance, Organization, and Culture

By: Don Mankin,Susan G. Cohen

Traditional forms of collaboration are not sufficient for competing effectively in the more complex and dynamic environment of today’s business world. Face-to-face meetings between people of similar backgrounds have given way to increasingly complex working relationships. Organizations must be able to gain rapid access to knowledgeable people to meet constantly changing conditions and demands. More fluid, flexible, and easily reconfigurable collaborative relationships are necessary to produce the innovations that can make or break organizations3⁄4even entire industries3⁄4 and provide the opportunities that attract the talented and motivated employees who will make the difference between success and failure. Business Without Boundaries helps managers address these challenges. The authors explore a number of wide-ranging, real-world cases to identify hands-on principles for successful collaboration. They offer managers and executives practical steps and tools for creating, facilitating, and supporting complex collaborations throughout their organizations. And they explain how to “team” across boundaries in the new global economy. The recommendations are specific enough to apply to particular forms of complex collaboration (for example supply chains, global product development teams, interorganizational alliances) but general enough to apply to new forms that have yet to emerge.
