Book description

In Sustainable Teams, consultant and keynote speaker Frederic Meuwly, Ph.D. shares his practical, evidence-based approach to helping organizations achieve high-performance teamwork.

The author views teams as complex human ecosystems that can achieve long-term success by focusing on 18 factors of workgroup sustainability. The guide includes three real-life case studies showing how these factors contribute to improved performance, as well as advice on how to translate them into everyday practice.

By fully leveraging the power of collective intelligence, sustainable teams can co-create lasting value that serves a higher purpose and achieves a greater good.

At a time when many organizations are still overly focused on short-term returns, Sustainable Teams is a vibrant call for leaders to redefine teamwork in response to profoundly disruptive changes in our environment, societies, and economies.

This book can serve as an inspiring resource and field guide for executives, department heads, project leaders, and specialists in talent and organizational development.
