Developing and Leading Emergence Teams describes a future business
landscape that seems to be complicated, complex and chaotic, in
almost equal measures. The variety and diversity of the
environments within which large organizations will be seeking to
operate, require a similar variety of systems, process and
structures if they are to respond successfully to emerging
opportunities. The established models of teamworking (matrix,
cross-functional or transdisciplinary) can all adapt to this new
environment but will only do so if the culture, leadership and
management style of the business enables this. The authors describe
a model of emergence teams; high-trust teams that exhibit
exceptional affinity for knowledge sharing, sense making, and
consensus building. They then explore the specifics of leading such
a team, how the team leader should: design the team; interact and
facilitate the team's development; understand the personal nature
of each of the team members and the overall emotional regime that
will affect trust, commitment and motivation. Peter Smith and Tom
Cockburn draw on research and detailed case examples to provide
techniques your organization can adopt in order to build and
support the various teams capable of addressing complexity.
