Summary |
When it comes to working with others, we're all taught not to make waves, and not to rock the boat. But when the tensions, conflicts, and differing opinions that naturally exist in every organization are left unspoken and unresolved, team meetings can be left in a cloud of mediocrity, passive-aggression, and a molasses-like inability to get anything done.
Nice Teams Finish Last reveals how you can pave the way for bold results by using open and honest communication to transform the way your team interacts. Filled with powerful exercises-as well as revealing self-assessments you can use to determine whether your team is being "too nice"-this practical, energizing book reveals how your and other team members can productively and positively exchange clear, sharp feedback...effectively challenge ideas without ruffling feathers...and unleash the kind of "good" conflict that drives innovation and quality without creating enemies.
