For most of those teams, that will be a unique and much-needed discussion."

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Is your company run by a team with no name? At the top of every organization chart lies a myththat a Senior Management Team makes a company's critical decisions. The reality is that critical decisions are typically made by the boss and a small group of confidantsa "team with no name"outside of formal processes. Meanwhile, other members of the management team wonder why they weren't in the room or even consulted ahead of time. The dysfunction that results from this gap between myth and reality has led to years of unproductive team building exercises. The problems, Frisch shows, are ones of process and structure, not psychology. In Who's in the Room? Bob Frisch provides a unique perspective to this widely misunderstood issue. Flying in the face of decades of organizational psychology, he argues that the solution lies not in addressing behaviors, but in unseating the senior management team as the epicenter of decision making. Using a broad portfolio of teamslarge and small, permanent and temporary, formal and informalgreat leaders match each decision to the appropriate team in a fluid, flexible approach that you won't find described in management textbooks. Who's in the Room? is based on interviews with CEOs at organizations ranging from MasterCard to Ticketmaster to The Red Cross. Understand and embrace the way decision-making actually happens in their organizationsUse these "teams with no names" to best advantageEngage the Senior Management Team in the three critical tasks for which it is ideally suited Organizations will get better decisions and superior results by unleashing the full potential of their Senior Management Teams. And bosses will see a dramatic drop-off in people coming into their offices asking, "Why wasn't I in the room?" Is your company run by a team with no name? At the top of every organization chart lies a myth that a Senior Management Team makes a company's critical decisions.
