Easy to digest concepts perfect for the undergraduate-level learner. May be a bit simplistic for graduate-level students. Chapters are short which helped encourage my students to actually do their reading!
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2021
Excellent for my class
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2013
Reading this book for my PhD research on corporate team formation and I love it. It is very easy to read, but gives concrete examples and explanations. Very applicable to real life in the corporate world and just about any organization that uses teams (what organization doesn't?).

This book is the required textbook for a class I'm taking. I'm not enjoying the class.
What can I say, it's a book, it has pages with text written on them. I may come back later to let you know if I become an effective team builder.

An excellent read! I learned so much!
Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2015
Very engaging writing, I would recommend this for an audience that may be skeptical of the perceived softness of team building. Writing is straight and to the point and the authors are credible.
