Sinopse

Wool Trade explores the profound influence of wool on world history, economics, and culture. Far from being a simple textile, wool acted as a major driver of economic growth and social stratification. The book examines wool's journey from its origins to its role in shaping global commerce and fashion. Readers will discover how this single commodity influenced societies, fueled empires, and left a lasting mark on the world. For example, the English enclosure movements, which transformed agricultural practices, were largely driven by the profitability of wool production. The narrative unfolds chronologically, beginning with the early domestication of sheep and progressing through the rise of wool as a global trade commodity. The book explores the impact on medieval economies, the rise of global trade networks, and also the social structures created by wool. By drawing on historical records, archaeological findings, and economic data, Wool Trade offers a comprehensive look at the interconnectedness of history, economics, and culture through the lens of this ubiquitous fiber. The book emphasizes wool's active role in shaping events.

    A classic work on teams and collaboration—now updated with a new preface—shows how an externally focused team model is the key to fueling innovation and your organization's success. 
     
     
     
    "Good" teams build camaraderie, confidence in their abilities, and a solid process for working together. But these internal dynamics—while positive in themselves—can create a wall between the team and the outside world. And that wall can prevent the team from adapting to change and delivering value to the organization. In this updated edition, Deborah Ancona and Henrik Bresman describe an externally focused team model—the X-team—that is even more relevant today than when it was first introduced. 
     
     
     
    X-teams, with their distinctively flexible membership and leadership structure, continuously reach outward to fuel the innovation process. With new examples and research from organizations such as Microsoft, Takeda, and the Museum of Modern Art, Ancona and Bresman show you how to build X-teams that: keep pace with shifts in markets, technologies, cultures, and your competition; innovate by moving quickly from generating ideas to executing and diffusing them throughout your organization; and employ "distributed leadership" to unlock crucial information, expertise, and new ways of working together—wherever these qualities reside within or outside your company.
