Today more than ever before in the history of the poultry industrythere is a concerted effort to improve the working relationshipbetween the grower and the integrator.
Teamwork in Poultry Production picks up wher Larry Cole'sprevious book, Communication in Poultry Grower Relations,left off. While the first book concentrated on organizationalimprovement, this book focuses on the specific interpersonal skillsneeded in the industry to create a synergistic workingrelationship-a topic which, until now, has been largelyignored.
Written in a down-to-earth training style, this book:
1 Details the interpersonal and communication issues thatdetermine the success of the employee-grower workingrelationship
2 Outlines the responsibilities of both the contract grower andthe company employee, providing a detailed description of what eachparty can do to improve the working relationship on the farm
3 Creates a behavioral blueprint that can be easily implementedby the entire grower-employee network
4 Serves as the resource for ongoing training efforts withemployees and growers
