Product Description
For every leader who has ever wondered what level of excellence their team could achieve, Teamwork 101 lays out a plan packed with insight to get them there.
John C. Maxwell believes that "teamwork is at the heart of great achievement. The question isn't whether teams have value. The question is whether we acknowledge that fact and become better team players." In Teamwork 101, Maxwell draws on leadership wisdom from his books The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork, Talent Is Never Enough, Developing Leaders Around You, The 360ยบ Leader, Winning with People, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, and The 17 Essential Qualities of a Team Player. This concise, power-packed game plan can help leaders create an environment that brings about victory and fulfillment to the whole team.

On paper, the 1969 New York Mets appeared to be a mediocre team, at best. Their shortstop and second baseman were skinny little guys who barely hit their weight. Their first baseman was a cast off from the Pirates; a guy with power, but who struck out too much. Their right fielder was an erratic player, offensively and defensively; every play was an adventure for Ron Swoboda. What the casual observer might not have realized is the Mets' pitching staff was about to come into its own; guys like Tom Seaver, Jerry Koosman, Gary Gentry, and Nolan Ryan had tons of talent which would manifest itself in a trip to the World Series and a stunning upset of the highly favored Baltimore Orioles. The entire baseball world was amazed; and the Orioles were shaking their heads after falling to those Amazin' Mets in five games.
Of course, what the Mets were able to achieve, as a team, far exceeded their "individual" expectations; and the rest is baseball history. John C Maxwell knows leadership, and he knows it takes great teamwork to make any leader successful. The qualities which every leader needs to know to produce a winning team are packaged nicely in this wonderful book. It's written in the typically pragmatic Maxwell style---direct and engaging. After reading it, you'll realize you knew everything he said; but then you'll realize everything he said is rarely achieved. Throughout history, the great leaders---from Alexander the Great to Winston Churchill---were able to rally their followers to accomplish remarkable feats. Looking back on it, the stubborn persistence of an entire country during a ferocious attack by Nazi Germany, helped turn the tide in World War II. Churchill's courageous demeanor during those trying times helped spark a nation's survival; and destined him for greatness. That's a team effort of magnificent proportion. For any leader of any organization to truly understand what it takes to succeed, look no further than this book. Read it, and put into practice these critical fundamentals; you'll more than likely produce stunning results. It's really just that simple.

This is one of the best books on leadership as it relates to working with others that I've read. Classic Maxwell with common-sense writing and intelligent relay of ideas make this book a must-have for anyone who truly seeks to become an effective leader. Rightly focuses on the leader's character development and the importance of moral actions when leading others.

This is an excellent book on leadership, one that all leaders should read and follow! The points that John cover in this book are critical in all leaders and teams such as developing a team that lasts, creating positive energy on the team and harnessing the team's creativity. John uses short sections and gives stories in the book to really drive these points home. Short and to the point!
I also love that this book is small in shape which allows me to keep it in the pocket of my briefcase and re-read sections whenever I have some downtime. I highly recommend this book for all leaders, managers and team members.
