Booklist Review

The utilization of teams to help manage organizations is nothing new. "Team building" and "problem-solving teams" have long been management literature topics. But the idea of using teams to replace management is new--a bold approach to some, a threatening challenge to others. Manz and Sims have been studying teams and leadership for more than a dozen years and wrote SuperLeadership: Leading Others to Lead Themselves (1989), which lays the groundwork for the successful implementation of self-managing teams. Here they move beyond theoretical considerations to detail actual successes and failures of the team concept at seven major manufacturing and service companies. ~--David Rouse
