Book Synopsis The Ideal Team Player by : Patrick M. Lencioni
Download or read book The Ideal Team Player written by Patrick M. Lencioni and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-04-25 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his classic book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Patrick Lencioni laid out a groundbreaking approach for tackling the perilous group behaviors that destroy teamwork. Here he turns his focus to the individual, revealing the three indispensable virtues of an ideal team player. In The Ideal Team Player, Lencioni tells the story of Jeff Shanley, a leader desperate to save his uncle’s company by restoring its cultural commitment to teamwork. Jeff must crack the code on the virtues that real team players possess, and then build a culture of hiring and development around those virtues. Beyond the fable, Lencioni presents a practical framework and actionable tools for identifying, hiring, and developing ideal team players. Whether you’re a leader trying to create a culture around teamwork, a staffing professional looking to hire real team players, or a team player wanting to improve yourself, this book will prove to be as useful as it is compelling.

Book Synopsis Multivariate Complexity Analysis of Team Management Problems by : Bredereck, Robert
Download or read book Multivariate Complexity Analysis of Team Management Problems written by Bredereck, Robert and published by Universitätsverlag der TU Berlin. This book was released on 2015-08-10 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, we identify and develop simple combinatorial models for four natural team management tasks and identify tractable and intractable cases with respect to their computational complexity. To this end, we perform a multivariate complexity analysis of the underlying problems and test some of our algorithms on synthetic and empirical data. Our first task is to find a team that is accepted by competing groups and also satisfies the agenda of some principal. Extending an approval balloting procedure by an agenda model, we formalize this task as a simple combinatorial model where potential team members are represented by a set of proposals and the competing groups are represented by voters with favorite ballots, that is, subsets of proposals. We show that the underlying problems UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED BALLOT and MAJORITYWISE ACCEPTED BALLOT are NP-hard even without an agenda for the principal. Herein, UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED BALLOT asks for a set of proposals that is accepted by all voters and MAJORITYWISE ACCEPTED BALLOT asks for a set of proposals that is accepted by a strict majority of the voters where acceptance means that each voter supports the majority of the proposals. On the positive side, we show fixed-parameter tractability with respect to the parameters "number of proposals" and "number of voters". With respect to the parameter "maximum size of the favorite ballots" we show fixed-parameter tractability for UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED BALLOT and W[1]-completeness for MAJORITYWISE ACCEPTED BALLOT. On the negative side, we show W[2]-hardness for the parameter "size of the solution" and NP-hardness for various special cases. Our second task is to partition a set of individuals into homogeneous groups. Using concepts from the combinatorial data anonymization model k-ANONYMITY, we develop a new model which formalizes this task. The information about the individuals is stored in a matrix where rows represent individuals and columns represent attributes of the individuals. The homogeneity requirement of each potential group is specified by a "pattern vector". We show that some special cases of the underlying problem HOMOGENEOUS TEAM FORMATION are NP-hard while others allow for (fixed-parameter) tractability results. We transfer our "pattern vector" concept back to combinatorial data anonymization and show that it may help to improve the usability of the anonymized data. We show that the underlying problem PATTERN-GUIDED k-ANONYMITY is NP-hard and complement this by a fixed-parameter tractability result based on a "homogeneity parameterization". Building on this, we develop an exact ILP-based solution method as well as a simple but very effective greedy heuristic. Experiments on several real-world datasets show that our heuristic easily matches up to the established "Mondrian" algorithm for k-ANONYMITY in terms of quality of the anonymization and outperforms it in terms of running time. Our third task is to effectively train team members in order to ensure that from a set of important skills each skill is covered by a majority of the team. We formalize this task by a natural binary matrix modification problem where team members are represented by rows and skills are represented by columns. The underlying problem is known as LOBBYING in the context of bribery in voting. We study how natural parameters such as "number of rows", "number of columns", "number of rows to modify", or the "maximum number of ones missing for any column to have a majority of ones" (referred to as "gap value") govern the computational complexity. On the negative side, we show NP-hardness even if each row contains at most three ones. On the positive side, for example, we prove fixed-parameter tractability for the parameter "number of columns" and provide a greedy logarithmic-factor approximation algorithm. We also show empirically that this greedy algorithm performs well on general instances. As a further key result, we prove LOGSNP-completeness for constant gap values. Our fourth task is to redistribute teams of equal size. More precisely, one asks to reduce the number of equal-size teams by dissolving some teams, distributing their team members to non-conflicting non-dissolved teams, and ensuring that all new teams are again of equal size. We formalize this task by a new combinatorial graph model. We show relations to known graph models such as perfect matchings, flow networks, and star partitions. On the negative side, we show that the underlying problem is NP-hard even if the old team size and the team size increase are distinct constants. On the positive side, we show that even our two-party variant of the problem is polynomial-time solvable when there are no conflicts or when the districts to dissolve and the districts to win are known. Furthermore, we show fixed-parameter tractability with respect to treewidth when the old team size and the team size increase are constants. In dieser Dissertation identifizieren und entwickeln wir einfache kombinatorische Modelle für vier natürliche Teamverwaltungsaufgaben und untersuchen bezüglich Berechnungskomplexität handhabbare und nicht handhabbare Fälle. Hierzu analysieren wir die multivariate Komplexität der zu Grunde liegenden Probleme und testen manche unserer Algorithmen auf synthetischen und empirischen Daten. Unsere erste Aufgabe ist es ein Team zu finden, welches von einer Gemeinschaft akzeptiert wird und den Vorstellungen (im Folgenden „Agenda“) eines Chefs entspricht. Wir formalisieren diese Aufgabe mit einem einfachen kombinatorischen Modell, indem wir ein bekanntes Verfahren aus dem Wahlkontext durch ein Agendamodell erweitern. In diesem Modell wird die Gemeinschaft durch Wähler mit je einer „Favoritenmenge“ repräsentiert. Wir zeigen, dass die resultierenden Probleme UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED BALLOT und MAJORITYWISE ACCEPTED BALLOT NP-schwer sind, sogar wenn es keine Agenda des Chefs gibt. Hierbei fragt UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED BALLOT, ob es ein Team gibt, welches von allen Wählern akzeptiert wird. MAJORITYWISE ACCEPTED BALLOT fragt, ob es ein Team gibt, welches von einer strikten Mehrheit der Wähler akzeptiert wird. Akzeptanz bedeutet in diesem Zusammenhang, dass jeder Wähler die Mehrheit der Teammitglieder unterstützt. Auf der positiven Seite zeigen wir „fixed-parameter tractability“ (FPT) für die Parameter „Anzahl an potentiellen Teammitgliedern“ und „Anzahl an Wählern“. Für den Parameter „maximale Größe der Favoritenmengen“ zeigen wir ein FPT-Ergebnis für UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED BALLOT und W[1]-Vollständigkeit für MAJORITYWISE ACCEPTED BALLOT. Unsere zweite Aufgabe ist es eine Menge von Individuen in homogene Gruppen zu partitionieren. Unter Ausnutzung von Konzepten des kombinatorischen Datenanonymisierungsmodells k-ANONYMITY entwickeln wir ein neues Modell, welches diese Aufgabe formalisiert. Dabei werden die Homogenitätsanforderungen jeder potentiellen Gruppe durch einen „Mustervektor“ spezifiziert. Die Informationen über die Individuen sind in einer Matrix gespeichert, wo Individuen durch Zeilen und ihre Attribute durch Spalten repräsentiert werden. Wir zeigen, dass einige Spezialfälle des sich ergebenden Problems HOMOGENEOUS TEAM FORMATION NP-schwer sind während andere FPT-Ergebnisse ermöglichen. Wir übertragen unser „Mustervektorkonzept“ zurück in die Welt der kombinatorischen Datenanonymisierung und zeigen, dass es helfen kann die Nutzbarkeit der anonymisierten Daten zu verbessern. Wir zeigen, dass das zu Grunde liegende Problem NP-schwer ist und ergänzen dies durch ein FPT-Ergebnis bezüglich eines „Homogenitätsparameters“. Aufbauend darauf entwickeln wir sowohl eine ILP-basierte exakte Lösungsmethode als auch eine Heuristik und testen diese in Experimenten mit empirischen Daten. Unsere dritte Aufgabe ist es ein Team effektiv auszubilden, um sicherzustellen, dass aus einer Menge von wichtigen Fähigkeiten jede jeweils von der Mehrheit der Teammitglieder beherrscht wird. Wir formalisieren diese Aufgabe durch ein natürliches Matrixmodifikationsproblem auf binären Matrizen, wobei Teammitglieder durch Zeilen und deren Fähigkeiten durch Spalten repräsentiert werden. Das resultierende Problem ist bekannt als LOBBYING im Kontext von Bestechung in Wahlen. Wir untersuchen wie natürliche Parameter wie „Anzahl an Zeilen“, „Anzahl an Spalten“ oder die „maximale Anzahl an fehlenden Einsen pro Spalte um eine Mehrheit an Einsen zu erhalten“ (im Folgenden „Gap-Wert“) die Berechnungskomplexität unseres Problems beeinflussen. Auf der negativen Seite zeigen wir NP-Schwere, sogar wenn jede Zeile höchstens drei Einsen enthält. Auf der positiven Seite zeigen wir zum Beipiel ein FPT-Ergebnis für den Parameter „Anzahl an Spalten“ und entwickeln eine Heuristik mit logarithmischen Approximationsfaktort und testen diese auf empirischen Daten. Als weiteres Schlüsselergebnis zeigen wir, dass unser Problem LOGSNP-vollständig ist für konstante Gap-Werte. Unsere vierte Aufgabe ist es Teams gleicher Größe neu aufzuteilen. Genauer versucht man die Anzahl gleichgroßer Teams zu reduzieren indem man einige Teams auflöst, deren Mitglieder an nicht in Konflikt stehenden verbleibende Teams verteilt und dabei sicherstellt, dass alle neuen Teams wiederum gleich groß sind. Wir formalisieren diese Aufgabe durch ein neues kombinatorisches Graphmodell. Wir zeigen dessen Beziehungen zu bekannten Graphkonzepten wie Perfekten Matchings, Flussnetzwerken, und Sternpartitionen von Graphen. Auf der negativen Seite zeigen wir, dass das zu Grunde liegende Problem NP-schwer ist, sogar wenn die alte Teamgröße und der Teamgrößenanstieg voneinander verschiedene Konstanten sind. Auf der positiven Seite zeigen wir unter anderem, dass unser Problem in Polynomzeit lösbar ist, wenn es keine Konflikte gibt oder wenn die aufzulösenden und zu gewinnenden Teams bereits bekannt sind.

Book Synopsis Team of Teams by : Gen. Stanley McChrystal
Download or read book Team of Teams written by Gen. Stanley McChrystal and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of My Share of the Task and Leaders, a manual for leaders looking to make their teams more adaptable, agile, and unified in the midst of change. When General Stanley McChrystal took command of the Joint Special Operations Task Force in 2004, he quickly realized that conventional military tactics were failing. Al Qaeda in Iraq was a decentralized network that could move quickly, strike ruthlessly, then seemingly vanish into the local population. The allied forces had a huge advantage in numbers, equipment, and training—but none of that seemed to matter. To defeat Al Qaeda, they would have to combine the power of the world’s mightiest military with the agility of the world’s most fearsome terrorist network. They would have to become a "team of teams"—faster, flatter, and more flexible than ever. In Team of Teams, McChrystal and his colleagues show how the challenges they faced in Iraq can be relevant to countless businesses, nonprofits, and organizations today. In periods of unprecedented crisis, leaders need practical management practices that can scale to thousands of people—and fast. By giving small groups the freedom to experiment and share what they learn across the entire organization, teams can respond more quickly, communicate more freely, and make better and faster decisions. Drawing on compelling examples—from NASA to hospital emergency rooms—Team of Teams makes the case for merging the power of a large corporation with the agility of a small team to transform any organization.

This book was released on 2003-06-16 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book is written in a lively, engaging, conversational style, without compromising on empirical rigour to substantiate its claims. ...All practitioners of problem based learning will benefit from the multipronged perspectives on pbl facilitation contained here." British Journal of Educational Technology Interest in problem-based learning continues to flourish worldwide. To date there has been relatively little to help staff to examine the complex issues relating to facilitating the implementation of problem-based learning and the ongoing development of staff, students and the curriculum. This book explores a broad range of issues about facilitation, in particular: understandings of facilitation that have emerged from the author's recent research and ways of equipping and supporting staff in terrestrial and virtual contexts. It also questions how students are assessed and suggests ways of preventing plagiarism in problem-based learning. It examines what it might mean to be an effective facilitator and suggests ways of designing problem-based curricula that enhance learning.

Download or read book Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past half-century has witnessed a dramatic increase in the scale and complexity of scientific research. The growing scale of science has been accompanied by a shift toward collaborative research, referred to as "team science." Scientific research is increasingly conducted by small teams and larger groups rather than individual investigators, but the challenges of collaboration can slow these teams' progress in achieving their scientific goals. How does a team-based approach work, and how can universities and research institutions support teams? Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science synthesizes and integrates the available research to provide guidance on assembling the science team; leadership, education and professional development for science teams and groups. It also examines institutional and organizational structures and policies to support science teams and identifies areas where further research is needed to help science teams and groups achieve their scientific and translational goals. This report offers major public policy recommendations for science research agencies and policymakers, as well as recommendations for individual scientists, disciplinary associations, and research universities. Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science will be of interest to university research administrators, team science leaders, science faculty, and graduate and postdoctoral students.
Book Synopsis Lessons from Problem-based Learning by : Henk van Berkel
Download or read book Lessons from Problem-based Learning written by Henk van Berkel and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-08-12 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problem-based learning (PBL) has excited interest among educators around the world for several decades. Among the most notable applications of PBL is the approach taken at the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life sciences (FHML) at Maastricht University, the Netherlands. Starting in 1974 as a medical school, the faculty embarked on the innovative pathway of problem-based learning, trying to establish a medical training program which applied recent insights of education which would be better adapted to the needs of the modem physician. The medical school, currently part of the FHML, can be considered as an 'established' school, where original innovations and educational changes have become part of a routine. The first book to bring this wealth of information together, Lessons from Problem-based Learning documents those findings and shares the experiences of those involved, to encourage further debate and refinement of problem-based learning in specific applications elsewhere and in general educational discussion and thought. Each chapter provides a description of why and what has been done in the Maastricht program, followed by reflection on the benefits and issues that have arisen for these developments. The final section of the book examines the application of PBL in the future, and how it is likely to develop further.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy written by Michaela A. Swales and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 1159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a specific type of cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy developed in the late 1980s by psychologist Marsha M. Linehan to help better treat borderline personality disorder. Since its development, it has also been used for the treatment of other kinds of mental health disorders. The Oxford Handbook of DBT charts the development of DBT from its early inception to the current cutting edge state of knowledge about both the theoretical underpinnings of the treatment and its clinical application across a range of disorders and adaptations to new clinical groups. Experts in the treatment address the current state of the evidence with respect to the efficacy of the treatment, its effectiveness in routine clinical practice and central issues in the clinical and programmatic implementation of the treatment. In sum this volume provides a desk reference for clinicians and academics keen to understand the origins and current state of the science, and the art, of DBT.
