This e-book is a team building road map featuring the Ten Keys that Unlock Limitless Success. It is based on the lifetime body of work of Dr. Bill DeMarco, an expert in building and leading high performing teams and organizations. A recognized leadership and culture change consultant, scholar, and executive, How to Build a Team is based on his team building experiences with dozens of world class organizations on five continents? It is practical guide for creating/enhancing effective teams in small, medium, and large organizations. It provides insights, tools, exercises and real world anecdotes. The book concludes with a personal feedback questionnaire that can both help readers better gauge how they are doing as well as plan for greater team building success.
At a fundamental level, team building has everything to do with finding the leader within and leading others.
A leader is someone who gives purpose to collective effort while inspiring willing effort to support that purpose.
At the organizational level, we give purpose to the collective effort of all our direct reports, who in turn do the same, and so on down the line. To really work, that purpose must build off of personal values and reflect organizational mandates from a higher level.
The Big Challenge
The big challenge for a leader, however, is the “inspiring willing effort” part. This goes well beyond just demanding performance levels, based on bottom line history and projections. It is easy for persons of title to demand performance of their subordinates. It is far more difficult to “inspire willing effort” of others. The advantage of “Inspiring willing effort” is that it taps inner passions so those being led give only the best effort they are capable of, irrespective of whether the boss is around!
How to Use this Book
This book is meant to be used as a practical leader’s guide. It contains ten keys that drive successful team building. Each “key” contains a variety of reflection points and how to’s. To get maximum would be derived from careful reflection about each comment/question within each “key”. To do this well, ask yourself about the meaning / implications of each point for yourself and then for members of your team. Do not rush the process.
A “Key” Example
As an example, the first point under the “Sharing Information” Key page header is “If I don’t know what is expected, I won’t know how to prioritize what to do.” The real issue here is how do you spend your time…are you strategic, working against a plan, or are you more freewheeling. Given how precious time is, there is an obvious need to align time spent against goals as much as possible.
For your subordinates, do they really know how their job fits within the bigger picture? Don’t assume this to be true! In my experience, while some have an idea…somewhat… most subordinates don’t really know how what they do fits within the bigger picture. Most people have a “default comfort zone” which is where they spend much of their time when the goals, and how their activities fit within those goals, are not clear. “Default comfort zones” are usually made up of good things, but rarely are they strategic uses of time.
About YOU
Decide how well you understand what is expected of you and how it fits within the organization’s bigger picture. Commit your understanding to paper. Writing your answers down is a great help because it minimizes the tendency to give “yes” and “no” answers, and most often points to what needs to be done next.
This book provides anecdotes, insights, tools, and exercises that thousands of leaders on five continents have found helpful in “inspiring willing effort” in both themselves and others. It can be effectively used as a self-directed study guide, a team building workshop topical outline, or in conjunction with professional assistance in Team Building.
May this book help you enhance your inner leader and inspire willing effort in others!

This was an easy read and it is full of great leadership development lessons. It's a light read, but this is where I pivot to my dislikes. The book is very compact, and at times is a bit to basic. I would like to have had more content. I think it could have been a five star, but it landed on a strong three!Product details

Dr. Bill Demarco has it right when he targets "inspiring willing work" as the key objective of team work. This is a handy little book for people who are trying to understand why teams work and why they don't. If you are a first time manager, you can get a very focused course on how you get your team engaged on an ongoing basis.
Pragmatic and practical advice for all leaders whether you are rookie or a veteran. A quick read that gets to the heart of the issues and leaves you with an excellent toolkit for putting the ideas immediately to practice.
Gets to the core of the issue quickly and in a way that can be absorbed fast. Helped me in designing a team for a new company. Great refresher when starting a new project or if you are leading for the first time. No fad information, just core enduring concepts that underlie successful teams.
