Cross-functional teams, that is, teams comprised of members from different departments, are an essential element in developing a world class organization. Yet anyone who has tried to build effective cross-functional teams knows that they often fade away; they lack the tools, training, and motivation that would enable them to tackle more challenging tasks. In 40 Tools for Cross-Functional Teams: Building Synergy for Breakthrough Creativity , Walter Michalski cuts through the tangled thicket of team literature to give us a focused and comprehensive guide to building and sustaining cross-functional teams. This book will teach you everything you need to know about cross-functional teams. The author provides 40 carefully selected tools arranged in eight process stages, including getting cross-functional teams up and running, developing synergy/consensus, creatively solving problems, and recognizing and rewarding teams. An engaging book with clear illustrations, 40 Tools for Cross-Functional Teams is based on the same user friendly design of the Tool Navigator's Master Guide for Teams .

These 40 tools will assist any company in the creation of cross-functional teams to compete in today's team based corporate environment. Included are discussions of: Why teams fail and tips for assuring team success. Cross-functional teams and how to form them. Forming a cross-functional Six Sigma Team.
