Primal Teams: Harnessing The Power Of Emotions To Fuel Extraordinary Performance (Hardcover)

Recent discoveries in neuroscience have determined that emotions operate independently of our logical minds and that they can most effectively be influenced by tackling them directly rather than by trying to fix them with rational thinking. This book applies the latest principles of team psychology to the workplace and explains how creating positive (optimal) emotions can turn an ordinary team into a high-performance machine capable of achieving spectacular results. Providing readers with practical tools that will help them harness the power of group energy, it shows how leaders can motivate team performances that transcend the talent and skills of the individual performers. Each chapter ends with a feature giving readers something they can work with in their own business.
