Everyday employers pull employees together, label them a "team," give them a directive, and expect them to deliver results quickly. Soon, however, due to lack of focus, the team flat-lines and the energy needed to succeed is lost.
As members of a team of professional development specialists, consultants, and coaches, the authors of "Do Big Things" have found a common and undeniable pattern of steps successful teams use on their way to making a meaningful impact.
Amid constant swirl, uncertainty, and complexity is your team capable of doing big things?
