On this episode of The Business Beat, Laura Clark and Courtney Young ask the experts how to build a great team. Portfolio President and Publisher Adrian Zackheim discusses some mighty author duos, and one of those duos, Paul Assaiante and James Zug, explore their approach to teamwork on and off the squash court, including a six year collaboration that resulted in their new book Run To The Roar. Personality Poker author Steve Shapiro explains how building a strong team is kind of like playing a good hand of poker, and Jack Covert of 800-CEO-READ shares one of his top picks for anyone who wants to lead a team. We also pay a visit to Perigee and Prentice Hall Editor Maria Gagliano, who shares a book that has helped her become a better editor and communicator.
