Teams offer us many advantages as an organized way to accomplish tasks – but what are the best methods and practices for harnessing the full power of a team successfully? In its second edition, Learning Team Skills offers insight into how both those in a college and corporate environment can use teambuilding skills as well as their individual strengths to create, participate in, and lead successful working teams.

The newly-revised second edition of this practical and interactive text retains its many reader participation features and true-to-life anecdotes while adding major new sections on: best practices for virtual teams ways to diagnose team problems measurement instruments for evaluating the motivation of team members cultural considerations when building a strong team effective inclusion of team members born after 1985, and more than a dozen online resources for forming and managing excellent teams
