ENDURING PRINCIPES FOR EFFECTIVE TEAMWORK Teamwork is an immensely efficient way to get a job done. Effective teamwork has many components such as a defined purpose, stated objectives, a competent leader, clear communication, efficient organisation and a sense of comradery. One of the most underrated, but indispensable, qualities of a productive team is relationship, where the team is not just linked by a common purpose, but meshed together by authentic relationships. This book centres on the relational aspect of a team because it is one of the most vital to get the job done. In it you will discover five relational principles for an effective and productive team. Want a team with great chemistry and comradery, then read this book. WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING: Together: Five Enduring Principles for Effective Teamwork will be an invaluable resource to use in understanding the dynamics of both leading and serving on a team founded on clear Biblical principles.
