TEAM OF TEAMS - STANLEY MCCHRYSTAL GEBUNDEN

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.
