SELF-DIRECTED TEAMS DVD SELF-DIRECTED TRAINING The Self-Directed Teams training system can help you achieve the breakthrough performance achievable by these uncommon work groups. It saves time during new team start-ups by minimizing confusion and apprehension about the changes to come.

It features the fascinating story of self-directed teams at the San Diego Zoo: how the Zoo's acclaimed reorganization of its core business – its animal exhibits – prompted dramatic changes to its traditional, hierarchical, union-based working structure.
