Team Relationship Management -...

Dr. Jeb S. Hurley

Inspiring Trust and Peak Performance 
Even in the hardest of times, business goes on and the demand for innovative solutions requires the collaboration of the best minds across networks of teams. Many of these teams are now working remotely, compounding the complexity and frustrations that come with the stress of uncertainty and change. Most leaders work hard to inspire their teams to peak performance; yet, too often, friction is high and trust is low, resulting in unnecessary stress and disappointing performance. 
But there are the stellar exceptions, teams that consistently deliver exceptional performance. What makes them different? 
Over the past 25 years, Dr. Jeb Hurley has held GM, VP, and CEO roles at companies ranging from Fortune 100 to startups. While doing his doctoral research, he spent five years walking together with today’s team leaders experiencing what was and wasn’t working on the front lines. Team Relationship Management looks at team leadership and superior team performance through the lens of behavioral science, focusing on the behaviors that inspire trust and peak performance on teams. 
In five parts, you’ll journey from the rise of team-based organizations in the 20th century to discovering the three behaviors the best team leaders employ that deliver greater inclusion, higher engagement, and superior performance:Laying a foundation of core values and norms that bring out the best in people.Inspiring individual motivation through understanding people’s core psychological needsManaging team relationships in a manner that creates and sustains trust 
This book is a practical guide for a new generation of conscious leaders. If you are as passionate about people’s well-being at work as you are about their performance, and understand the connection between the two, this book is for you.

Hard work and insatiable drive paid off, and his company, NCFIT, grew to success. Jason thought he had overcome insurmountable obstacles throughout his career, but nothing prepared him for the moment when his daughter, Ava, was diagnosed with leukemia. Tasked with facing what no parent should have to confront, he had two choices: succumb to overwhelming anger, or jump headfirst into the fight. He chose the latter.In his first book, As Many Reps As Possible (AMRAP), Jason reveals the invaluable principles that helped him and his wife dedicate every minute of their lives to Ava's battle.

With clear insight, personal anecdotes, and directed reader exercises, this book will help you get where you're going, wherever that may be.

Additionally, a new section, exclusive to this revised edition, covers some of the most outrageous workplace behaviors that one could ever encounter.Inside, you'll also find these other helpful tips:Getting insight into the causes of Jerk-like behaviorStep-by-step programs to deal with Jerks of every persuasionCoping with the most outrageous Jerk behaviors ever documentedThe best ways to avoid becoming a Jerk yourselfAnd much, much more!
