Stronger together : how great teams work
Stronger Together will help readers to understand what differentiates world-class teams from the rest. Using these insights, readers can apply the same key principles when leading - or being a part of - a team, whether they are in a business or sports environment. To illustrate how world-class teams operate and how they're led, the author draws on examples of teamwork from a diverse range of disciplines, from The Red Arrows to SAS Units, a Formula One Pit Crew, Americas Cup yacht crews, World Championship sports teams and more. He includes case studies from his work with elite professional, international and Olympic sports teams, plus executive leadership teams from businesses. This truly insightful and fascinating book lifts the lid on what it takes to be the best and how we can translate these lessons to our own performance.

A teamwork effectiveness model for agile software development
Teamwork is crucial in software development, particularly in agile development teams which are cross-functional and where team members work intensively together to develop a cohesive software solution. Effective teamwork is not easy; prior studies indicate challenges with communication, learning, prioritization, and leadership. Nevertheless, there is much advice available for teams, from agile methods, practitioner literature, and general studies on teamwork to a growing body of empirical studies on teamwork in the specific context of agile software development. This article presents the agile teamwork effectiveness model (ATEM) for colocated agile development teams. The model is based on evidence from focus groups, case studies, and multi-vocal literature and is a revision of a general team effectiveness model. Our model of agile teamwork effectiveness is composed of shared leadership, team orientation, redundancy, adaptability, and peer feedback. Coordinating mechanisms are needed to facilitate these components. The coordinating mechanisms are shared mental models, communication, and mutual trust. We critically examine the model and discuss extensions for very small, multi-team, distributed, and safety-critical development contexts. The model is intended for researchers, team members, coaches, and leaders in the agile community.

Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science
The past half-century has witnessed a dramatic increase in the scale and complexity of scientific research. The growing scale of science has been accompanied by a shift toward collaborative research, referred to as \"team science.\" Scientific research is increasingly conducted by small teams and larger groups rather than individual investigators, but the challenges of collaboration can slow these teams' progress in achieving their scientific goals. How does a team-based approach work, and how can universities and research institutions support teams?
Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science synthesizes and integrates the available research to provide guidance on assembling the science team; leadership, education and professional development for science teams and groups. It also examines institutional and organizational structures and policies to support science teams and identifies areas where further research is needed to help science teams and groups achieve their scientific and translational goals. This report offers major public policy recommendations for science research agencies and policymakers, as well as recommendations for individual scientists, disciplinary associations, and research universities. Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science will be of interest to university research administrators, team science leaders, science faculty, and graduate and postdoctoral students.

Afetlerde görev alan kişilerin takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık düzeyleri ve çalışma arkadaşlarına duyulan güven arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi
Bu çalışmada, afetlerde görev alan kişilerin takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık düzeyleri ve çalışma arkadaşlarına duyulan güven arasındaki ilişkinin incelemesi amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini Aksaray İl Afet ve Acil Durum Müdürlüğü bünyesinde görev yapan 218 AFAD gönüllüsü oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre elde edilen sonuçlar ise şu şekildedir; katılımcıların takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık düzeylerinin orta düzeyde olduğu, takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık değişkeninin alt boyutlarından olan eğitim ve yol gösterme ve problemi teşhis ve analiz etme boyutunun boyutlar arasında en yüksek düzeyde; yüksek iç motivasyon boyutunun ise en düşük düzeyde olduğuna ilişkin sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır. Katılımcıların çalışma arkadaşlarına güven düzeyinin ise oldukça yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca afetlerde görev alan kişilerin takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık düzeylerinin çalışma arkadaşlarına duyulan güven üzerinde anlamlı etkisi vardır. Takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık ve takım çalışmalarına yatkınlığın alt boyutlarından güven, problemi teşhis ve analiz etme, sorumluluk (inisiyatif, istekli olma), eğitim ve yol gösterme, iş birliği ve ekip çalışması ve liderlik, ikna, azim boyutları ile çalışma arkadaşlarına güven arasında anlamlı ilişkiler bulunmuş olup; sadece takım çalışmalarına yatkınlığın alt boyutlarından yüksek iç motivasyon boyutu ve çalışma arkadaşlarına güven arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunamamıştır. Bu araştırma kapsamında ilk olarak takım çalışmalarına yatkınlık ve çalışma arkadaşlarına güven kavramları ile ilgili olan alan yazındaki çalışmalar incelenmiş ve elde edilen bilgiler ışığında uygulamalı bir araştırma oluşturularak alan yazınına katkı sağlamak amaçlanmıştır.

Sustainable Development of Teamwork at the Organizational Level—Case Study of Slovakia
This research focused on the organizational level of teamwork in companies in the Slovak Republic. The study helped to reveal the possibilities of sustainable management of team cooperation. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, including quantitative questionnaires and qualitative interviews, the study examined four key areas: (1) team system and work positions in the team, (2) division of tasks in the team and tasks management, (3) team communication (external, internal), and (4) team training activities. The findings reveal a widespread use of teamwork, with a significant proportion of tasks performed by teams and many organizations exhibiting high reliance on teamwork. However, the study also highlights a dominance of traditional management practices, where team formation is primarily driven by capacity constraints, with limited support for organic team emergence. Moreover, management often retains significant control over team decision-making. The research further indicates that many employees lack adequate training in teamwork skills and principles. While teamwork is prevalent, reliance on traditional communication methods, such as face-to-face meetings and phone calls, persists, despite the potential of ICT tools to enhance collaboration. Furthermore, the effective use of ICT tools is hindered by challenges such as incompatibility between different systems and limited data accessibility. These findings underscore the need for organizations to embrace more agile and flexible team structures, invest in comprehensive teamwork training for all employees, leverage ICT tools effectively to improve communication and collaboration, and foster a culture of continuous improvement and feedback within teams. By addressing these areas, organizations can enhance teamwork effectiveness, improve employee engagement, and ultimately achieve better organizational outcomes so that they can implement sustainable approaches for organizing team collaboration.
