Bringing spirituality into teamwork

This book is the only practical book on the market for helping people to deeply explore the connection between spirituality and high performance in teamwork. The six-stage model is applicable not only to teams but to one's own personal development, to couples, and to organizations. The exercises are well-designed and easy to follow. The large full-page layout of the book allows you to copy very professional handout material to use in workshops. This six-stage team development model has been used with great success in both for-profit organizations such as AT & T, and in non-profit organizations. I highly recommend it to all trainers who are working with teams, and suggest that you consider taking Heerman's Team Spirit Certification Training to further develop your skills in this area.

Team activities that really work!

For once here's a book that truly delivers thought-provoking activities to inspire team members. Organized by the stage of a team (developing, mature, etc.) there are activities here for any situation. I bought this book while preparing a workshop to combine two existing teams from different companies into one. Itseemed custom-made for my needs in developing the staff workshop and provided just the extra energy I was looking for. This book's a keeper - a welcome addition to my reference library
