If you are a team leader, team member, senior leader, or consultant you need to know what really drives team effectiveness. Are you confident you know what truly makes a difference?

Many books and consultants offer advice about teamwork based on opinion or conjecture. Some of that advice is useful, but much of it is overly simplistic or even misleading. Fortunately, a growing body of research is now available with which to separate the myths from the facts.

In Teams That Work (Oxford University Press), Scott Tannenbaum and Eduardo Salas crack the teamwork code. Grounded in research and full of examples from C-Suite, medical, financial, manufacturing, retail, technology, sports, military, and even aerospace teams, Scott and Ed unpack seven proven drivers of teamwork.

Teams That Work is filled with practical, evidence-based tips for team leaders, team members, senior leaders, and consultants along with tangible tools for putting the science of teamwork into practice.
