‘Fire and Rescue’ and critical care physicians Dr Mark Forrest and Dr. Halden Hutchinson-Bazely incorporated my 'Phases of Team Development' in their talk at TBS24 in Zermatt, Switzerland. I'm honored that they valued and used my work. Dr. Forrest and Dr. Hutchinson-Bazely represented The ATACC Group (TAG) at the medical education conference which was organized by scanFOAM.org. 🔗 A recording of their talk: https://lnkd.in/dT45hfj5 🔗 The current (2024) edition of my work: https://bit.ly/teams-2024 #ATACC #FOAMed #CriticalCare #EmergencyMedicine #HighPerformanceTeams #Innovation #Leadership #MedEd #MedicalEducation #Meducation #PhasesOfTeamDevelopment #scanFOAM #TBS24 #TBSZermatt #TeamBuilding #Teamcraft #TeamDevelopment #TeamDynamics #TeamLeadership #Teamwork #TeamworkTradecraft #Tuckman #VikingMeducation #FreeOpenAccessMeducation #FreeOpenAccessMedicalEducation

I’m honored that my research is valued and used by scientists, researchers, journalists, academics, YouTubers, podcasters, businesses, government agencies, and others in publications, online media, and more. I’m delighted that CEWEP was added to the list. CEWEP is the umbrella association of the operators of Waste-to-Energy plants, representing about 410 plants from 23 countries. They make up more than 80% of the Waste-to-Energy capacity in Europe. Its members are committed to ensuring high environmental standards, achieving low emissions, and maintaining state of the art energy production from remaining waste that cannot be recycled in a sustainable way. My research was featured in a presentation at CEWEP’s 10th Congress (Berlin, Germany).

I'm thrilled that — with a license from me — my copyrighted ‘Phases of Team Development’ work is featured and used by businesses, professional associations, government agencies, and universities around the world. Examples include Yale University, IEEE, Constructor Institute (Switzerland), Adobe, Boston University, Amsterdam Public Health Research Institute, United States National Park Service, Bayer, Ford, University of Galway (Ireland), Hasso Plattner Institute (Germany), American Management Association, UC San Diego, and many more. Cisco was added to the list. I wrote about it here: https://bit.ly/cisco-24 . ————— Informed by the research of Bruce W. Tuckman and Mary Ann C. Jensen, over 100 subsequent studies, and my first-hand professional experience with, and analysis of, team leadership and performance, I created my ‘Phases of Team Development.’ It’s a unique perspective and visual conveying the five phases of team development — Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning. It’s also inclusive of a graph showing how performance varies by phase, as well as the characteristics and strategies for each phase. Leaders of teams — Project Managers, Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, DevOps Leads, and others — can apply the information to help handle challenges or issues experienced by teams. By doing so, they’ll advance the teams’ (and their own) happiness, productivity, and success. I initially developed my material in 2008, and I periodically refresh it.

While each session is unique, the top topic is high performance teams. In those sessions, I expand upon on my ‘Phases of Team Development’ work. My sessions are dynamic, engaging, and packed with fresh insights and usable information. They’re highly rated by attendees and organizers alike.

Congratulations to Cathy Lassiter, Douglas Fisher, Toni Faddis, Ed. D., and Nancy Frey on their new book, "How Teams Work: A Playbook for Distributing Leadership." I’m honored that it references my ‘Phases of Team Development’ work. 🛒"How Teams Work" is at Amazon (https://amzn.to/3THcAoH) and other sellers 💡 The current (2024) edition of my 'Phases of Team Development' material is here: https://bit.ly/teams-2024 🔎 Google highlights "How Teams Work" here: https://bit.ly/htw-book #Teamwork #HowTeamsWork #Book #HowTeamsWorkBook #TeamworkBook #Leadership #LeadershipBook

Strategic objectives play a crucial role in guiding organizations towards achieving their vision and mission. They’re fulfilled by projects, endeavors undertaken to create a unique product, service, or result. The art and science of project management (Agile or otherwise) — the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to projects — is indispensable for the management and completion of projects. And tools can make a significant contribution to successful outcomes. In 2007, I developed a fresh take on RACI charts, a simple project management tool. My unique material provides audiences with practical information they can use to leverage RACI charts to help manage complexities and achieve success. I periodically refresh my work. In 2020, I published an updated version on ResearchGate, a European platform for researchers and scientists. I’m honored that a division of the EU’s European Commission used my training material in one of their publications.

“In Technology, there's no substitute for experience. However, certifications remain a valuable tool for advancing one's career.” — from ‘Most Valuable IT Certifications: Update for 2024’ In 2017, I started developing and reporting information on the most valuable Information Technology (IT) related certifications. As tech advances and marketplace needs evolve, the skills and knowledge required to succeed can also change. For that reason, I periodically update my respective work. For the 2024 update, I compiled and analyzed data from 12 sources to determine the consensus on the most valuable IT certifications. Eleven certifications emerged.
