Team of Teams: New Rules of Engagement for a Complex World by Stanley McChrystal, Tantum Collins, David Silverman and Chris Fussell

Helping Large Organisations Think And Respond Like Small Teams

Very Good Condition - Light rubbing to jacket edges and corners.

Drawing on the transformation of the Joint Special Operations Task Force in Iraq, Stanley McChrystal and his co-authors examine why traditional hierarchies can struggle against fast-moving, decentralised opponents. They argue that organisations need shared understanding and trust across boundaries, together with the freedom for smaller teams to act on what they learn. Military experience is placed alongside examples from other fields to explore how communication, leadership and decision-making can change when complexity replaces predictability. Team of Teams considers how to combine the resources of a large organisation with the responsiveness of a close-knit group, offering managers a framework for thinking about adaptation, cooperation and responsibility.
