Deep teambuilding insight from an unexpected, yet utterly logical source The Ideal Team Player is an essential teambuilding guide presented in fable form. Bestselling author Patrick Lencioni continues the story from The Five Dysfunctions as we follow Jeff Shanley to Napa, where he draws on the lessons learned from DecisionTech CEO Kathryn Petersen to take over the family business. Frustrated by a series of bad hires, Jeff turns to a local college basketball coach to learn the secrets of building a great team. You'll learn along with Jeff as the coach relates the three major traits that impact the team's success more than any technical approach and the teambuilding recipe that yields great results every time.
