Teamwork Is Key to Meeting Goals, Say 2 Consultants

Developing Effective Teams: Proven Methods for Smoother and More Productive Teamwork, by Beth Gilbertsen and Vijit Ramchandani, promotes a “two-heads-are-better-than-one” philosophy for sizing up goals at non-profit organizations and government agencies. The authors, consultants in Minneapolis-St. Paul, provide ideas for ways that employees can collaborate, and explain how to overcome barriers that such collaborative efforts face, such as infighting. The book offers worksheets to help employees who are working together on a project establish ground rules and evaluate their performance. Publisher: Amherst H. Wilder Foundation, P.O.
