Coming Soon | Free Workshops on Teamwork
Lobby of Atlanta Tech Village

Effective teamwork is at the heart of every successful startup. That's why Professor Lindred Greer of Stanford Business School is offering a free one hour workshop on team effectiveness.

To participate in these sessions, there are two simple prerequisites: teams attending must bring the majority of their team, and all members must fill out a few short surveys. Workshops last an hour each and are available at various times between February 9-12 at the Atlanta Tech Village.

What will you gain from this experience? In addition to participating in a free training, all teams will also receive a free copy of Scaling to Excellence: Getting to More Without Settling for Less by Stanford professors Huggy Rao and Bob Sutton, as well as a complimentary access code to participate in a free webinar on the topic of scaling in startups, offered by Rao.

Space is limited, so be sure to register.

More on the teacher: Lindred L. Greer is Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior and she teaches the core Groups and Teams course in the MBA program. Professor Greer’s work focuses on the impact of team composition on intragroup conflict and team performance. She has a particular interest in how teams are composed in terms of power, status, and leadership structures, and when and why particular forms of team composition may fuel power struggles and conflicts within organizational teams. When investigating teams, she often adopts a multi-level theoretical approach in understanding how individuals within the same team may differentially experience team structures and processes. In carrying our her research, she employs a variety of methods, including field (ranging from survey to quasi-experimental studies), laboratory, and archival research. Her research appears in academic journals such as the Journal of Applied Psychology, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, and Science.
