A USA TODAY BESTSELLER • ONE OF FORBES TOP 10 BUSINESS BOOKS OF 2024 ELEVATE LEADERSHIP TO TEAMSHIP. In today’s volatile, fast-paced, and decentralized business environment, even the most talented leaders can’t succeed alone—they need to mobilize the full potential of the team. The world’s highest-performing organizations under­stand they need more than leadership to win—they need teamship. Teamship is a profound shift from today’s hierarchical model to sharing the load among a team that elevates one another and the organization to achieve exponential results. Based on more than twenty years of research with more than three thousand teams, world-renowned coach and bestselling author Keith Ferrazzi has cracked the code on what defines the top 15 percent of teams. In Never Lead Alone , Ferrazzi brings to life what is expected of teammates in teamship’s new agile, inclusive, innovative, and challenge culture. Teamship combines: Co-elevation behaviors—the teammates’ com­mitment to pushing one another higher in aligned pursuit of the mission, and twenty-first-century collaboration processes, prac­tices, and tools to transform team performance. Through rigorous data, dozens of high-return prac­tices, and vivid case studies you will learn: the 10 critical shifts to teamship, including peer-to-peer accountability, personal trust, shared feedback, team resilience, and adopting agile ways of working; how to agree on a new high-performance, high-integrity team social contract; and approaches to leveraging collaborative technology and AI. Never Lead Alone is an essential step-by-step road map for every teammate and all leaders on their team’s journey from average to extraordinary.
