Book Selection for February:
Rocket Model: Practical Advice for Building High Performing Teams by Gordon Curphy, Robert Hogan
Our work with hundreds of public and private sector groups and teams across the United States and Europe suggests that leaders need a practical, well researched model for team building. The Rocket Model provides leaders with sound practical advice on how to improve group and team dynamics. The model is both descriptive and prescriptive, it can be used to diagnose team functioning and make specific recommendations regarding how to launch new teams or to improve the performance of more established teams.
