Warum arbeitet das Team so gut zusammen?

4 stars

Ich habe das Buch auf Empfehlung unseres Agile Coaches gelesen und erkenne darin viele Verhaltensweisen wieder, die wir in unserem Team intuitiv "richtig" gemacht haben. Ich sehe hier viele der Gründe mal explizit aufgeschrieben, aus denen der "Team Spirit" konsistent in jedem Retrospektivmeeting auf der positiven Seite zu finden ist … und dadurch auch die Möglichkeit, es vielleicht sogar bewusst noch besser zu machen.

Wie die meisten Englischsprachigen Sachbücher ist "The Culture Code" außerdem extrem unterhaltsam geschrieben und bringt viele anschauliche Beispiele.

Culture Code: a good book about how culture shapes and is shaped by groups

4 stars

A good book based on the experiences of a dude who went observing and studying what constitutes a safe, strong, productive, and effective group. A group here might mean a company, a sports team, a classroom, or maybe a squad of SEALs.

The things Daniel finds out and how they laid out the book to describe how these things work at certain successful organizations is very helpful in terms of making concepts concrete such as building psychological safety, making people work as teams, measuring what matters, and making people aware of the environment they're working in and how it might effect results.

The book is very "leader-oriented", e.g. it mostly assumes that there is a strong and/or respected leader who has to make change happen. I somewhat disagree with this notion and I would suggest reading Humanocracy in addition to this book, while also taking the time to read up …
