These questions, and many more will be answered by the different leadership situations that are presented and then analysed in each chapter. Also the book explains how the methods presented can be adapted both for traditional face-to-face and virtual working environments.And finally, the Handbook of Facilitative Leadership is about boosting team performance. High performance is all about creating understanding, direction and alignment. Without proper implementation of the right leadership tools, teams cannot reach their full potential.
