"There is so much good research and writing on high performing
teams now... but few CEOs have the time to access it. So good to
have this short, accessible and practical collection of tips on how
to transform your team, by Catherine and Jacqueline, two very
experienced team coaches who have both thoroughly researched all
the best literature and found ways of applying it to teams across
different sectors... I certainly will be using a number of these
tips to improve the boards I chair and the teams I lead. I hope you
too find they aid you on your journey." - Peter Hawkins, Author of
Leadership Team Coaching (Kogan Page, 2011) Professor of Leadership

intentioned, they are frequently disappointed with their outcomes
when trying to create high performing teams. 50 Tips for Terrific
Teams has brilliantly integrated the research... and translated it
into practical suggestions that will absolutely help create the
desired shifts. This guide is user friendly and is the closest
thing to having your own personal sage. I would recommend this book
as an essential tool for anyone who leads a team or works with or
on a team." - Denise Still, MSW, RSW, PCC, CEC, Manager

someone comes up with a book that is concise, clear, incredibly
useful, and easy to work with. We all live and work with other
people, and we all need to get better at it. Here is a collection
of great ideas that you can put to use almost any day in just about
any organization. It is a great resource for anyone working with
teams, and every leader and team member should have one on their
desk. You can pick an idea to try this week, try another tip the
week after, and keep harvesting new insights for months to come." -

This book takes place in the 1966 lifestyle of 'Sin City', where
the original astronauts played along side the colorful residents of
the Space Coast. What do get when you mix beautiful beach bunnies
with surfers, engineers, and former test pilots? The result is a
hysterical historical comedy of crazy characters on the cutting
edge of the space race. Living by the motto that 'life is too
serious to be taken seriously', this book provides a fictitious
account of characters centered around factual events of the early
American Space Program. Transport to the time when America was at
the crossroads of change. The birth control pill, long hair, short
skirts, burned bras the Age of Aquarius and 'never trusting anyone
over thirty''
