Are you a leader who is tired of your time, attention, and energy getting devoured by team drama? Gossip. Infighting. Complaints. Cliques. Drama is what occurs when team members aren't given the tools or support they need to rise above stress, selfishness, and disagreements. Team drama wreaks havoc on organizational health. It damages morale, productivity, engagement, and retention. Drama leads to customer complaints, lost revenue, and a talent exodus. It also sucks the life out of every manager it touches, monopolizing their time and obliterating their spirit. This is why leaders at every level, in every industry, have a duty to build team unity and prevent team drama. No More Team Drama deftly merges research in psychology, organizational development, and employee engagement with the author's practical experience training front-line leaders from all over the U.S. The result is an indispensable manual on improving the quality of interactions between employees in the workplace. Cure for the Common Leader author Joe Mull describes exactly how to transform a group of employees into a band of collaborators committed to working hard, getting along, and wowing customers. In other words: No. More. Team. Drama. -------- "Yes, yes, yes! Joe has smartly and frankly addressed behaviors that suck the energy out of so many at work, providing us all credible, doable fixes. No More Team Drama should be required for anyone serious about creating healthy company cultures!" - Suzanne Malausky, Director of Culture and Talent Management, MedExpress, an Optum Company "Using proven ideas and presented in a real-world, read-it-and-use-it format, No More Team Drama is a treasure trove of resources and expert ideas to improve employee engagement, customer experience, and co-worker connections." - Vicki Hess, Author, Shift to Professional Paradise and 6 Shortcuts to Employee Engagement "I spent 20 years leading professional baseball organizations. I can attest that this book explains simply how to develop a workforce that models the best, most successful teams in sports. Joe mixes Gladwell-like stories and research with real-world experiences, so that you learn how to develop workplace teams that get along, while getting the job done." - Skip Weisman, Author, Overcoming The 7 Deadliest Communication SINs: A New Standard for Workplace Communication
