Nice Teams Finish Last: The Secret to Unleashing Your Team's Maximum Potential Brian Cole Miller, Amacon, 2010,209 pp., $17.95 (book). This is an easy-to-read, but not-so-easy-to-digest, book on why what we learned in grade school makes us unsuitable for participating on a productive team. Miller dissects our desire to be cooperative against the need to give genuine, honest feedback when part of a team. This is a well-written wake-up call for all managers and leaders putting together a team, and for team members themselves. Don't play nice, play bold.
