Teamworking

Teamworking

by Frank Mueller (Editor), Frank Mueller (Editor), Stephen Procter (Editor)

Synopsis

What is teamworking? How can organisations enjoy the benefits claimed for it? What does teamworking imply for employees? Against the background of an enormous resurgence of interest in teamworking, this book provides neither simplistic prescriptions nor knee-jerk condemnation of the idea. It explores in great depth the issues raised by teamworking, how teamworking can be managed and how it is experienced by employees.

Teamworking will become the essential starting point for anyone interested in contemporary debates concerning organisations and work, whether on postgraduate, post-experience, undergraduate or professional courses, or practitioners.
