Team of Teams By Stanley Mcchrystal
Introduction
You have now finished reading the leadership book of your choice and formed an idea about:
1. Book’s Intellectual Value,
2. Book’s Scientific Rigor,
3. Book’s Value for Leadership,
4. Readability.
Your Task
Select a specific focus area of the book you have reported on and find out what research has been conducted recently on the topic in the past few years, as well as, if anybody has any real measurements on the issue, what are the results of those measurements?
It had no data, no reference to other work, and it was not published in a scientific journal. This time we are looking for something more scientific.
Start with
https://scholar.google.com/ (Links to an external site.) and search for academic journals.
Make sure the following issues are well addressed:
Does the document have a title and your name on it?
Formatting – does this document look like an academic report presented to an executive?
Are the references easily identifiable in the text and reproduced at the end of the document?
Are the references from reliable academic sources?
Are there enough references to sustain the general conclusion you wrote?
Does the conclusion tell the reader all there is to know in a concise manner?
