Description

What makes a good team? What makes a good team leader? How can I develop my team? If you're looking for answers to these questions, you'll find the answers in this book.

Through thirty years of climbing expeditions with friends, Walter Wright has learned a lot about mountaineering, about his team mates, and about working on and leading a team. He shares with us the tales of expeditions (successful and not so successful) and the lessons he and his team have learned from those experiences.

Endorsements

"I can think of no better metaphor for leadership and group dynamics than the 30 year experience of a group of mountain trekkers—These anecdotes will delight the reader and ring bells of wisdom that can be applied at other times and in many organizations."

H. Newton Malon
Professor Emeritus of Psychology, Fuller Theological Seminary

"The rope is a wonderful metaphor for helping us to learn about shared vision, shared leadership, and serving one another."
