From the Back Cover:

Nearly everyone today must work effectively in a team. The problem is that
few people really understand how to build a team that truly takes advantage
of the greatness of the individual members of the team. Hence, people
become frustrated with the process of teambuilding and just want to give
up--but that's not a smart option. There is a better way. In Go Team!
Blanchard, Randolph, and Grazier outline a 3-step process that can help any
kind of team transform itself into a Next-Level Team: a team which uses all
team members' ideas and motivation more effectively, makes better use of
team members' and team leaders' time, and generates benefits for individual
team members, the team, and the organization. Using discussions, case
examples, and questions to consider, Go Team! shows team leaders and
members how to use information sharing to build high levels of trust and
responsibility; clear boundaries to create the freedom for team members to
act responsibly; and develop self-managing skills to make good team
decisions. As the team moves through the steps outlined in the book,
responsibility shifts naturally from the leader to the team as a whole.
Team members learn how to use their ideas in conjunction with the ideas of
others on the team in a highly motivated, synergistic manner. Creativity is
enhanced, satisfaction grows, a sense of pride is developed, and
outstanding results are achieved. Go Team! provides a dynamic,
responsibility-centered process for aligning and motivating everyone on the
team. Learn what Next-Level Teams are and what they can do for you, your
team, and your organization!
