Today more than ever before in the history of the poultry industry there is a concerted effort to improve the working relationship between the grower and the integrator. 
Teamwork in Poultry Production picks up wher Larry Cole's previous book, Communication in Poultry Grower Relations, left off. While the first book concentrated on organizational improvement, this book focuses on the specific interpersonal skills needed in the industry to create a synergistic working relationship-a topic which, until now, has been largely ignored. Written in a down-to-earth training style, this book: 1 Details the interpersonal and communication issues that determine the success of the employee-grower working relationship 2 Outlines the responsibilities of both the contract grower and the company employee, providing a detailed description of what each party can do to improve the working relationship on the farm 3 Creates a behavioral blueprint that can be easily implemented by the entire grower-employee network 4 Serves as the resource for ongoing training efforts with employees and growers

Larry Cole was an NFL player who played for the Dallas Cowboys from 1968 to 1981. He played during an exciting era of professional football. Joe Namath won the Super Bowl his rookie year. Monday Night Football started a couple of years later to sellout crowds where each city highlighted what made them different from other cities. He played in five Super Bowls at three different positions. He shares with you his childhood and high schools years. Then he shares his experiences on through college, including a stint at the United States Air Force Academy. This would prepare him to compete in the NFL.He wrote this book for the purpose of sharing with you how he discovered his own unique talents to compete on and off the field. He started his building and development business during the off-season to provide a smooth transition to his life after football. He played thirteen years for the same coach, Tom Landry, and the same defensive line coach, Ernie Stautner. He played one year with Don Meredith at quarterback, all of Roger Staubach's eleven years, including six of Craig Morton's years competing with him, and one year with Danny White at the helm. He was part of "Doomsday I" and "Doomsday II." He gives you insights on how each year was different and how Tom Landry was able to put together so many years as a perennial playoff contender. When this author retired, he had played in twenty-six playoff games, an NFL record at that time.

Much has been written of the importance of workplace social behaviors and values. However, "The missing link in the discussions about the importance of social values in the workplace is a process to measure and monitor the use of the behaviors contained within each value." Empirically defining behavioral performance standards makes it possible to measure, monitor and adjust in real time to improve the efficiency of working relationships, in a manner similar to that for improving technical performances. Quantifying such unquantifiables as open communication, cooperation, trust and mutual respect is the ambitious goal of authors Larry and Michael Cole: two respected business professionals who have made their lives and their livelihoods putting the MBC Software® methodology, as described in People-Smart Leaders, to work. Identifying the three working relationships key to the success of every organization, they provide organizational leaders with a fresh vocabulary and a plentitude of tools for fostering this "people operating system": the foundation for a revolutionary systematic process bringing organizations into a new "people age."
