Have you ever known colleagues who the minute they stepped into the conference room, on stage, or onto the playing field, elevated the performance of everyone around them? Someone whose impact within the team could be seen in nearly everything that was said and done?

These individuals are catalysts - they spark excellence in the behavior and the performance of the entire team.

The Catalyst Effect identifies the behaviors and skills needed to lead from wherever you are, regardless of your role or title. It describes powerful leadership and teamwork principles—12 clearly defined competencies, based on field research with professionals in business, sports, the arts, and non-profit organizations—that will elevate the performance of individuals, teams, and your entire organization.

This essential guide will show you how to learn and practice these catalytic competencies and help your group and organization achieve greater success, improve team dynamics, and help teammates grow in stature while magnifying their value.

Business professors and specialists Toomer et al. explain the mindset and competencies leaders need to impact and elevate team performance. They describe a catalyst effect that occurs by fusing leadership and teamwork into a force that raises the performance of everyone and elevates the overall team success, producing higher-level results. Drawing on interviews with professionals and leaders in business, sports, and the arts, they detail 12 key competencies to improve impact and drive progress toward team goals: building credibility by acting with integrity and inspiring trust, communicating clearly, and energizing others with optimism; creating cohesion by connecting emotionally, developing camaraderie, and putting the team's goals and the organization's mission before personal interests; generating momentum by energizing others to execute with the mission in mind, upgrading and rejuvenating skills and knowledge, and leading and following; and amplifying impact by pursuing excellence, mentoring and coaching others to excel, and proposing imaginative solutions. -- Annotation ©2018 * (protoview.com) *
