● 內文簡介

這是一部針對專案經理撰寫的實用社會智能指南,書中提供一套循序漸進的流程,讓你打造一支萬無一失的專案團隊--即便成員在性格、地理位置、文化或溝通方式上存在落差。

高表現團隊不會憑空出現。你需要以社會智能為原則所設計出來的流程,才能確保團隊能夠克服現今世界在統籌協調上的艱難挑戰。想要成為明星級的專案經理,你必須依照他人的個人學習風格進行溝通,提供不會讓人感到失去動力的當責制度,同時在舉行和記錄會議時,確保大家不會對會議內容置之不理。你必須在考量到社會動態的複雜現實下,逐步建構你的流程。

你必須先了解自己的團隊,才能激勵團隊;先激勵團隊,才能管理團隊。本書提供簡單易懂的技巧,確保團隊成員能夠跟你、跟彼此,還有跟任何有助達成任務的人之間建立起一種連結。畢竟團隊不是一群人的總合而已,而是需要專案經理發揮膠合的作用,讓團隊能夠緊密結合。
