"One of the ten best leadership books so far this year." --

Following up the popular peak performance book Organize Tomorrow
Today, a new plan to motivate, set priorities and lead any team to
optimal achievement
Watch a triumphant speech after a sports championship or business
milestone and you'll almost always hear some variation of this
catchphrase: "It couldn't have happened without the great team we have."
It doesn't matter if you're the owner of a 10,000-employee Fortune 500
company or running a small business, you're a part of a team. With a
combined 50 years of experience building, managing, advising, and
troubleshooting teams in both the business and sports worlds, Jason Selk
and Tom Bartow now reveal the common DNA that links the highest
performing teams.
In Organize Your Team Today, Selk and Bartow show how it takes
collective mental toughness to win, developed only through a clear
understanding of the goals, limitations, roles and personalities on your
team. Great leaders respect and embrace channel capacity, Selk and
Bartow explain, which means they don't overload their teams with
blizzards of tasks and responsibilities. They bust the "focus" and
"relationship" fallacies, as those words are meaningless for teams
unless they are byproducts of activities that really matter. And Selk
and Bartow teach how to manage expectations, since doing so creates a
level of respect between the leader and the team -- and among the team
members--that is a catalyst for peak achievement.
