Traditional Governance in an Era of Democratisation. 330 $aTraditional authority is a distinguishing feature in the landscape of contemporary Africa. It remains important in organising the life of the people at the local level despite modern state structures. And since the 1990's, African governments, international institutions and donor organisations have shown a renewed interest in it. As a result, a large number of African countries have enhanced or formalised the position of their chiefs. At the same time, however, this resurgence of traditional authority coincides with the wave of democratisation across sub- Saharan Africa, and many question the desirability and legitimacy of traditional authority in modern forms of governance. 410 0$aLaw, governance, and development.$pResearch. 606 $aChiefdoms$zAfrica 606 $aTribal government$zAfrica 607 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government$y1960- 615 0$aChiefdoms 615 0$aTribal government 676 $a306.2096 700 $aUbink$b Janine M.$f1976-$0866615 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162058103321 996 $aTraditional authorities in Africa$92017031 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06528nam 2200757 450 001 9910798177003321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-119-15742-0 010 $a1-119-15741-2 035 $a(CKB)3710000000603848 035 $a(EBL)4413730 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001614109 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16339645 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001614109 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14845950 035 $a(PQKB)10702024 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16234600 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14845961 035 $a(PQKB)21882647 035 $a(DLC) 2015047335 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL4413730 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11161297 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL898829 035 $a(OCoLC)930875546 035 $a(CaSebORM)9781119157403 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4413730 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000603848 100 $a20151130h20162016 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCommitted teams $ethree steps to inspiring passion and performance /$fMario Moussa, Madeline Boyer, and Derek Newberry ; with contributions from Joanne Baron [and six others] 205 $a1st edition 210 1$aHoboken :$cWiley,$d[2016] 210 4$dİ2016 215 $a1 online resource (257 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-119-15740-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aCover ; Title Page ; Copyright ; Contents ; Preface ; Introduction: ""Can I Make My Team Work?"" ; Part One ; Chapter 1 Commit: To Know the Rules, You Have to Make Them ; Making Commitments: The Power of Structured Conversation; Chapter 2 Check: What You Don't Know Is Probably Hurting You ; Team Culture and the Mystery of the Kaiko 327 $aThe Saying-Doing GapCheck Alignment: Revealing the Gap between Saying and Doing; Learning to Become Your Own Observer; Chapter 3 Close: To Bridge the Saying-Doing Gap, Act Like a STAR ; Swimming in the Deep Water; Situational Awareness: Ambitious Goals Are Not Enough; ACT Like a Star; The Enormous Flywheel; Bringing It All Together: The Surgery Team Turnaround; Chapter 4 Pay Attention: The Seven Common Mistakes You Are Probably Making 327 $aThe Seven Common Mistakes You Are Probably MakingThe Little Things, and the Big Picture; Part Two ; Chapter 5 Can You Hear Me Now?

Based on research from Wharton's Executive Development Program (EDP), this concise guide identifies the common challenges that arise when people work together as a group and provides key guidance on breaking through the barriers to peak performance. Committed draws its insights from the EDP's living lab: an intensive two-week simulation during which executive-level participants run complex global businesses. The authors have observed over 100 teams collaborating and competing for over 100 combined years in this intense environment. It has yielded fundamental insights about teamwork: what usually goes wrong, what frequently goes right, and the methods and techniques that will help you access your team's full potential. These insights have been distilled into a simple, repeatable process that you can start applying today. Getting teams engaged and aligned is hard. Committed will give you the tools you need to deal with all of the familiar teamwork challenges that get in the way: organizational politics, delegation, coordination, and aligning skills and motivation. Using vivid stories and examples from the worlds of business, sports, and non-profits, it will teach you how to: Understand the dynamics of successful teams Achieve peak performance using a research-backed methodology Gain expert insight into why most teams underperform Learn the critical points common to all great teams Committed gives you the perspective you need to combine the right people with the right way of collaborating to achieve extraordinary results"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aTeams in the workplace$xManagement 606 $aEmployee motivation 606 $aLeadership 615 0$aTeams in the workplace$xManagement. 615 0$aEmployee motivation. 615 0$aLeadership. 676 $a658.4/022 686 $aBUS097000$2bisacsh 700 $aMoussa$b Mario$01576867 702 $aBoyer$b Madeline$f1987- 702 $aNewberry$b Derek$f1983- 702 $aBaron$b Joanne 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798177003321 996 $aCommitted teams$93854995 997 $aUNINA
