Team Building from the Inside

Team Building gives you everything you need to know in order to facilitate a team...or effectively work on one. I was aware of the various stages of team development, but I was unaware of how the needs of team-members shifted across the different stages.

The author had very practical suggestions for a leader to help the team members overcome the challenges of their project, regardless of its size or complexity. I feel much more capable of leading a team into healthy interaction and effective productivity, thanks to this book.

Team Building at its finest

As a longtime fast food manager, I have to say that team building is one of the strongest traits a successful manager should have. Nothing says teamwork like trying to get a bunch of teenagers to work together toward a common goal (customer satisfaction)! This is a great book to read (listen to) to help you get to that personal professional goal of your own - that of building a team that works together like a well-oiled machine. I was impressed with some of the techniques brought forth here and I would recommend it to others who are looking for a few tips on how to build a strong, efficient, working team. It's important to remember that people are individuals first and foremost. Team leaders have to understand that and work with it.
Another thing I like about this book is the fact that you can get it on audio version instead of just the printed. I do a lot of driving and having it so readily available without straining my eyes is pretty cool.

A Good Leader Can Ace Team Building

What did you love best about Team Building?

What I liked best about "Team Building" is right in the beginning, when Ace states, "Teamwork is the building block of strong people, groups, and nations." If we all can band together, our teams will win!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Team Building?

"Team Building" has increased my interest through the many stages that a leader can use to improve the attitude of his/her team. These are "civility, respectability, and likeability attitudes." One must always remember that if there are any conflicts among your team, you as a leader, has to take care of them.

What does Joshua Mackey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Yes, I believe that Ace McCloud presents information on "Team Building," in a unique way. One way he did this was when he talked about incentives to basically boost your team's overall performance. I enjoyed hearing his story about when "he worked at Wells Fargo, and his manager offered all the salesmen and women the opportunity to win a red hand squeeze ball for the person who got the most sales." Once Ace heard this, even though it was just a ball, he "put it into high gear," and he won. To him it is just a symbol of what he could accomplish.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I found nothing wrong with Joshua Mackey's performance. I enjoy listening to him narrate everyone of Ace's books, and he always adds excitement to Ace's thoughts and words.

Easy to follow and understand

This book had some good strategies. Some I currently use.

Loved the narrator, I didn't need the book to understand him.

Team building explained in an accessible way

My new position has me doing something I've never had to do before: team building. I'm working in a non-profit, with many volunteers, and one of my newest main duties is to create and manage new teams to carry out the functions of our organization. This book gave me so many ideas and easily followed steps for recruiting, creating, and managing these new teams. I especially like the information on recruiting, as that is my most difficult task ahead. This book has helped me gain the confidence, and the positive thinking needed to carry out this new and difficult part of my career.

Great tips anyone can use for team building

I got this audio for my business, but it has a lot of practical advice that goes into regular life as well. I really liked the sections on building your team for success and creating a culture of excellence. The recruiting advice was helpful as well. Was very reasonably priced and extremely impressed with the content. Definitely recommended.
