One of the most effective management styles is teamwork, for it involves all staff in the decision-making process. Always among the leaders in participative management, libraries have begun to use teamwork strategies more and more frequently. Implementing these strategies is the focus of a new videotape, Teamwork Basics, produced by Library Video Network.
The 15-minute video reviews basic teamwork components and how they can be applied in today's libraries. It also illustrates teamwork by showing the workings of a cross-departmental team. Among the teamwork concepts covered are:
- Basic team components
- Rotating team membership
- The role of a team facilitator
- Agenda maintenance
