EBOOK: Leading and Coaching Teams to Success: The Secret Life of Teams by Philip Hayes Pdf

"Coaching remains an underused leadership style. This book offers a usable, practice-led guide to developing the skills to broaden your leadership repertoire. Phil draws on his years of experience as both a leader and a coach to provide insight into coaching successfully, not just with individuals but also with teams. A welcome addition to the expanding coaching canon." Andy Firth, Senior Consultant, Roffey Park Institute, UK "Phil Hayes is one of the best team facilitators and coaches I have ever worked with. If you want to know his secrets and exactly what you should do to get the same results - then read this book." Jenny Rogers, Management Futures Ltd, UK "This is a rich collection of astute observations, case studies, practical tools and signposting to resources offered by a skilled practitioner who writes as a seasoned peer rather than a learned academic. It is likely to appeal to team coaches thinking of working with senior management teams, particularly those who have gained underlying theory and perhaps been licensed in specialised instruments elsewhere, and who want to know what coaching at this level is really like at the coalface." Siobhan Soraghan, Director, Active Insight Consulting Limited "I found this book an excellent introduction to team related issues- be that leading teams, coaching teams or designing and delivering team training interventions. I particularly liked the way it deals with essential themes and skills that will be needed, providing excellent summaries of key principles, and providing additional resources for further research should the reader so desire."

The Secret of Teams by Mark Miller Pdf

Teams are critical to the success of every organization. Departmental, interdepartmental, cross-functional, ad hoc, task-specific—teams do everything from planning the office party to setting the annual budget to establishing performance goals. But what separates the teams that really deliver from the ones that simply spin their wheels? What is the secret of high-performance teams? As he did in The Secret, Mark Miller uses a compelling business fable to reveal profound yet easily grasped truths that can dramatically transform any organization. Debbie Brewster, the heroine of The Secret, has been promoted and is now struggling with taking her new team to the next level. Her old mentor, Jeff Brown, the company’s CEO, sends her out to find the secret of teams. On her journey she learns from three very different teams—the Special Forces, NASCAR, and a local restaurant. Debbie and her team discover the three elements that all successful teams have in common. But that’s just the beginning. The devil is in the details, as the story of Debbie’s efforts to actually implement the three elements shows. You’ll learn how to change entrenched ways of thinking and acting, what you have to do to optimize each of the three elements of a successful team, how to measure your progress, and more. Creating high-performance teams does more than just give your organization a competitive advantage. It can be a performance multiplier that significantly improves results while honoring and developing people. It may be the ultimate win-win-win that your organization is seeking.

Leading Teams In A Week by Nigel Cumberland Pdf

Leading a team just got easier We live in a world of teams made up of all kinds of people. We see this every day on TV, in newspapers and on the web - it might news about a winning sports team, a company's leadership team who have succeeded in buying another company or it might be a about a group of homeowners who have won a battle against a big developer. This book is aimed at helping all of us no matter what kinds of teams we might need to lead - it might be a group of people running a country, playing a sport for university, organizing a Church fete, leading a start-up company, or managing a global multinational group. All such teams have leaders, who are those individuals given the task of ensuring that their team works well together to achieve whatever goals and objectives are required. Very few if any of us will spend our entire lives without at some point leading other people even if only for a short time and in many cases we often lead others without having a formal leadership title. In seven chapters, this book will walk you through the entire process of successfully leading and managing a team, showing you the key dos and don'ts and spelling out where you need to put special attention and focus. These seven chapters cover: - How to get started with a team, exploring what a great team looks like and how it performs, and how to create a new team from scratch with individuals who bring their own habits, skills and expectations - The stages of development of a team and how a new manager can gain the respect and understanding of a team - The importance of aligning a team and setting common goals and expectations with clear agreement on a mission, vision and values. - How to create a team culture and processes of excellent communication, with clearly understood expectations, well run team meetings and discussions, and the minimizing of any conflict and gossip - How to work with remote or virtual team members where face-to-face meetings are difficult to arrange - How to identify and work with problematic and nonperforming members of your team and how to balance fairness and discipline - How to ensure that each team member's job role is clear and that the work is efficiently delegated and shared among the team members - How to grow your team through excellent training and development, including coaching, mentoring and on-thejob training - How to turn a good team into a team with a culture of excellence - How to create a self-functioning team which can operate in your absence and in which you have groomed a successor to take over from you if needed.

The Leadership Playbook by Nathan Jamail Pdf

The successful self-published author of The Sales Leaders Playbook writes his first mainstream leadership book There are enormous differences between managing and coaching. Yet many companies and organizations encourage their leaders to coach teams without ever teaching them how and without creating a culture that supports coaching. Nathan Jamail—a leading consultant, professional speaker, and the president of his own group of businesses—trains coaches at several Fortune 500 companies and learned that it takes not only different skills to achieve success, but a truly effective coach needs an organizational culture that creates and multiplies the success of every motivated team member. The Leadership Playbook shows leaders the skills necessary to be an effective coach and to build effective teams by: Fostering employees’ belief in the culture of a company Resolving issues proactively rather than reactively and creating an involvement that constantly pushes employees to be their best Focusing on the more humane principles of leadership—gratitude, positivity, and recognition—that keep morale high Holding teams and individuals accountable Constantly recruiting talent ("building the bench") rather than filling positions only when they are empty Combining research, interviews, and inspiring stories with the lessons that have earned Jamail the respect of the world’s foremost corporations including CISCO, FedEx, Sprint, the U.S. Army, and State Farm; The Leadership Playbook will dominate the category for years to come.
