The Adventures of a Self-Managing Team: The Story of a Self-Managing Team as Seen Through Their Eyes

As of 2001, sales of "Adventures" have topped 50,000! Thanks to everyone who has bought a copy over the last 10 years.Check out our new book, "Mastering Team Leadership: 7 Essential Coaching Skills".

Well-written yarn about a young fellow at a new manufacturing facility using a self-managed work force. You see the world through Billy's eyes during two years on-the-job. The story acts as an analogy for the 4 Stages of Team Development: Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing. Also includes a fifth stage -- Transforming.Realistic and well-crafted.

The book really paints a good picture of what life is like in a self-managing team environment. The story is entertaining and moves along nicely. I could really start to see the world through the main character's eyes. We are using this book at our plant to introduce all 500 workers to the concept of self-managing teams. We are also using the Team Training Manual to get all of the teams up and running.If you are looking for something to explain self-managing teams to your workforce, this is a really good one!

I recently read Mark's latest book, "Mastering Team Leadership: 7 Essential Coaching Skills", and decided to buy this one as well. I really like this one better because it is written as a story.It's a lot like "Who Moved My Cheese" and The One-Minute Manager Series by Ken Blanchard. Short, in story form, easy-to-read.This book also focuses on the team and individual team members, showing the reader their perspectives, challenges and successes. Another customer comment wished for this book in Spanish. And it is! We got ours by calling Mark and he got them to us.

I'd like to have more information of your book but in spanish
