How To Build an 'A' Team

A continual challenge for those of us who lead teams and projects is this: how can we help our team perform at their best? Project demands are only growing and the only way to meet those demands is to have a high-performing team, yet how do you do that? How do you build an 'A' team?

Whitney Johnson has some ideas about that and includes them in her new book Build an A Team: Play to Their Strengths and Lead Them Up the Learning Curve. Once you hear how her S curve works, you're going to find yourself calling back to it over and over.
