For the last 20 years, Nick Fewings has been working with teams around the world to motivate and inspire them to transform how they work, and so achieve even greater success. He has also shared his knowledge and experience of teamwork at many conferences, providing delegates with practical tips and suggestions on how to increase their team’s effectiveness.
Asked, “Have you written a book about how to achieve high performance teamwork?” His answer has always been no, but that has all changed.
Team Lead Succeed is for anyone who works in a team and wants to make a positive difference to the effectiveness of their teamwork. It provides tools, learning and practical suggestions to help teams achieve even greater success by understanding both WHO is in their team and HOW effective their teamwork is.
Team Lead Succeed helps teams appreciate those areas of their teamwork that are working well, while also highlighting areas that could be working better and need to be shared with the whole team, discussed and if agreed, changed.
As I read it, I thought about this, and I feel I could have used it when my kids were teenagers… It might have stopped me from tearing my hair out. Most useful, readable and sound. Nick says “I believe everyone in a team has a voice, which needs to be heard, especially when things aren’t working as well as they should be. After all, nothing will change if you do not take action and speak up.”
Author Nick Fewings, Director of Ngagementworks, has for the last 20 years facilitated team development. He calls himself a teamologist, someone who specialises in the study of the dynamics of teamwork, using this knowledge to help teams become more effective.
Nick is also the creator of the Team DyNAmics Model, used by teams to measure their effectiveness in 16 areas of teamwork. This allows teams to understand whether they are dysfunctional, average or high performing.
So back to this book, Team, Lead, Succeed.
