Publisher's Synopsis
In the Age of Collaboration, competitive advantage is not just about talent acquisition, it is about team collaboration skills. This book is about how first responders, search and rescue, surgical teams, flight crews, software development groups, and firefighters excel in an environment where they cannot afford to fail. Based on a five-year study, and his extensive experience in over 400 search and rescue missions, Dr. Hammond identifies nine qualities of highly reliable teams and shows how every team, regardless of purpose, can adopt these qualities and improve performance.
This book goes beyond the "team building" model to show how every team leader and member can contribute to a collaborative culture. Hammond says, "Highly reliable teams (HRTs) bond around a unifying purpose that consistently leads to excellence. They go higher and further than any one individual can go with less stress and more consistently excellent performance."
"Highly Reliable Teams" is a tool for any team anywhere to be better.
