3D Team Leadership
“Given the reality of today’s teams―global, remote, often 24/7―it is time for a fresh look at the topic. . . . [A] must-read.”―Jon Pershke, VP, Strategy, Transformation, & Customer Solutions, Lenovo Many organizations believe that high-functioning teams hold the key to breakthrough thinking, superior customer service, and high-quality products. But, all too often, leaders and managers fail to support teams so that they can deliver on their promises. For instance, many leaders ask for teamwork, but only reward and evaluate individual performance; focus on the group at the expense of individual members; or leave team members to sort out their differences, leading to the formation o...
The 5th Marine Regiment Devil Dogs in World War I
More than 8,000 men served in the Fifth Marine Regiment during World War I and the occupation of Germany.

Leading with Empathy
Focusing on empathy as a key tool, this book examines the impact of hybrid working on staff mental health and how business leaders, managers, coaches and mentors can create a positive and motivated hybrid workforce. Part of the Business in Mind series, it is for anyone who is managing remote workers, whether individuals or teams. As the world of work has changed drastically since the Covid-19 pandemic with more staff working from home, the importance of nurturing staff well-being is more important than ever. Even though businesses are seeing the benefits of working at home, it can also create challenges. With the latest research and studies, this book explores practical ideas for finding the right working model and how to develop an appropriate leadership style. Uniquely, it discusses the neuroscience of stress to identify ways to improve workers' mental health and inform how managers can use this to create a positive work environment.
Virtuality and Virtualization

It examines group processes within virtual teams, focusing in particular on leadership and group identity, as well as the role of knowledge in virtual settings and other implications of the role of fiction in structuring virtuality.
Multiteam Systems
This book examines an emerging organizational form called the multi-team system (MTS). This type of aggregation is being increasingly adopted by organizations and agencies that need to respond to complex strategic problems. There has been increasing interest in MTSs over the last decade to the point where there is now a need to (a) describe these organizational forms more fully, (b) build conceptual frames that can guide research, and (c) begin developing tools to improve the study of MTSs. The purpose of this book is to respond to these needs. The book contains a series of chapters that expand prior conceptual frames of MTSs, defining in more detail the compositional and linkage attributes ...
Boundary-Spanning in Organizations
In more recent times, the essence of the gatekeeper's role has moved to the 'boundary spanner' - a systems thinker who understands the specific needs and interests of the organization and whose greatest asset is their ability to move across and through the formal and informal features of the modern organization. There are many types of boundaries associated with an organization, for example, horizontal, (function and expertise), vertical (status, hierarchy), geographic, demographic, and stakeholder. Boundaries are "the defining characteristic of organizations and, boundary roles are the link between the environment and the organization" (Aldrich & Herker, 1977) with functions crucial to the ...
