The Firefly Effect: Build Teams That Capture Creativity and Catapult Results

Description:

Whats the best team you've been on? Do you remember how good it felt to be part of a group that was making a difference? Achieving its strategic goals? A time when you were at your best, and together everyone was even better? Discover Kimberly Douglas inspiring, yet pragmatic insights into building creative teams that get results. The Firefly Effect introduces an evocative metaphor linking the magical activity of catching fireflies on a summer evening to the magical ability of capturing creativity to facilitate teamwork. The author has found that catching fireflies (creativity) doesnt just catalyze results; it takes them to a whole new level. If you'd like your team to work together willingly, creatively and cooperatively; if youd like your team to actually look forward to group meetings because they always produce something tangible, valuable and strategic; if youd like your team to create meaningful memories so everyone feels proud to belong this books for you. Read it and reap. A partial listing of topics to be covered includes:

- What to do when the fireflies dont show up (or when creativity dries up)

- How to know when its time to find a new meadow (or a new approach, place or process)

- What to do if a leader is keeping too tight a lid on the jar (and team innovation is gasping for air)

- How to get inventive when it rains on your firefly hunt (or parade of ideas)

- What happens when everyone is too busy to join in (and group problems remain unresolved)

- How synchronizing makes everyones light brighter (and how to tap into the power of synergized effort)
