Team of Teams

New Rules of Engagement for a Complex World

Book • 2015

Stanley McChrystal

In 'Team of Teams', General Stanley McChrystal and his co-authors share insights on how to lead organizations effectively in a complex and rapidly changing world.

Drawing from McChrystal's experiences commanding the Joint Special Operations Task Force in Iraq, the book highlights the need to move from traditional hierarchical structures to a more decentralized 'team of teams' approach.

This involves fostering common purpose, shared consciousness, empowered execution, and trust among team members.

The book uses historical and contemporary examples, including military and business scenarios, to illustrate how this approach can enhance organizational adaptability and success.
