| Abstract
|
:
|
Even the best of today's management programs - total quality management, employee involvement, self-directed teams - are doomed ultimately to fail without the full and honest participation of the individuals involved. Teams perform to their potential only when members accept themselves, take responsibility for their feelings, and interact constructively with others. Only leaders who possess the self-esteem and confidence needed to speak the truth gain the loyalty of followers.
|
|
|

|
And groups make effective decisions when they create a structure that elicits and uses everyone's contributions.
|
|
|
:
|
He introduces tools and exercises - including the concordance model of decision making, the Team Compatibility Index for team building, the Work Relations Index for improved individual performance, and the leader as completer concept of leadership - to promote creativity and openness at work.
