I was interested in this book because improving team work is connected to my job as a team lead. This book gave me insight about the way I interact with my team members and how i can improve it. The book is focused on two business models, PVTV, and "The Great Game".
The first Concept, that stands for Purpose, Vision, Tenets and Values; is very important. And the Book describes how to establish this concept for a team though a story. The main character William is helping a struggling team, to overcome their differences and issues, by implementing the team's PVTV. As the team started the implementation, they started to come together and be more united which lead to their success.
As the team continue to grow, new issues started to appear within the team and everything started to fall again, then Will along with his company manager Rachel helped them implementing the second modal called "The Great Game of Business". The great game is based identifying the Critical Number then planning weekly gathering or "Huddle" that allow all team members to access the progress, also the "Great Game" includes creating mini-games and rewards,in a way that keeps all members excited and engaged.
The language was easy to understand and the characters made it very interesting and very easy to understand the concepts, and was a success in describing the process on how to turnaround a team using the two models.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who is feeling unhappy in his\ her organization, this book will make you questions your ways and will give you a push to be more positive and better team player and maybe create the change you organization needs.

The key lessons of “The Great Team Turnaround” revolve around people - how to blend the best each team member has to offer and rebuild that collective energy into shared purpose, vision and values – to measurable team and company success. Rather than a book about success in the business world, this is more a book about leadership and healthy people management. The allegory of interactions with Rosey the robot accentuates this point. The story reads more like the journal of a curious and dedicated professional, recording the daily activities and insights of its main character, and that is refreshing. The main character is humanized through snapshots of family life and interaction with friends and colleagues; including bright moments and others that reveal human vulnerabilities. This style of narration further feeds into the purpose of the book. The lessons taken from the book can be applied to companies and other organizations or settings, and helps readers uncover other ways to reorganize and succeed. At times a little slow, the storytelling is generally easy to read.

There’s been a lot to unpack in this book and beyond, that it’s been a struggle to come up with the opening line, I confess. But I found some solid golden anchors and plenty of nuggets in it it, I wish I’d read it earlier, and (oh, the feels!) I wish some people I’d worked with over the years had read it too. Well, I’m glad it came as I was transitioning out of one job and into another.
The three main points of the book are:
1) PVTV (Purpose, Values, Tenets and Vision), a set of pillars which unite and cohesively, meaningfully direct a team’s efforts towards their own and organisational success, and
2) The Great Game of Business, an open-book management concept first introduced by another business leader, Jack Stack, in 1992. (New edition: The Great Game of Business, Expanded and Updated: The Only Sensible Way to Run a Company)
3) connecting PVTV to The Great Game creates a synergy that unlocks the organisation’s full power, keeps people inspired, and gives a clear measurement for success (with suggestions for adapting the metrics to different team scenarios).
Author Jeff Hilimire writes engagingly, presenting this business book through the eyes and conversational tone of Will, an earnest entrepreneur and family man running a startup marketing agency. Before you know it, you’re dipping your toes into terminology and calclulations. Thankfully Will has both mentors and mentees with questions, answers, points to ponder and moments of epiphany, so there’s a lot of reassuring scaffolding and repetition to help it sink in.
This book is divided into parts — a prelude; an “opening chapter” where we meet Will, his team, and PVTV; two main sections — PVTV (with detailed conversations for team scenarios) and The Great Game of Business; as well as an Epilogue, and a final congratulatory “You Made It To The End!”.
This spirit permeates the book, from this quote in Jack Stack’s foreword, right through to the final pages, where Hilimire talks about his evolution from looking up to certain business “heroes” as a young man, but then maturing into the realisation that they “created brutally competitive and destructive cultures, pushing people to or past their limits in order to beat their competition.” That’s no way to live.
Sure seems like a good anchor to ground a business in.
Incidentally, Jack Stack didn’t co-write this book, but appears as a character whom our protagonist Will flies out to meet. And what a meeting! With its bucolic setting, SRC Holdings Corporation is a 100% employee-owned company employing over 1,200 people, with sales of over $450,000,000 located in Springfield, Missouri. I imagine it to be something like a co-op with over a thousand active members at weekly meetings. That’s really something! While Stack wasn’t a co-writer of this book, his work is captured as being half the answer and he himself appears as a (very memorable) character.
I greatly appreciated how Hilimire presented problems and discouraging moments as a given, and his characters modeled how to handle conversations dealing with these to make things better. There’s trust, there’s support and mutual respect, and there’s the long game of all of us surviving and thriving together.
If there’s a quibble, it would be the determinedly wholesome, cookie-cutter all-American feel that infuses the banter and dynamics, which initially was a bit distracting. But once I got past it, I did recognise the elements of diverse workforce which are present. And Hilimire’s profile features active participation in a plethora of social projects, pay-it-forward and investment in social empowerment — he’s the real deal.
This is the third book in Hilimire’s “Turnaround Leadership Series”, which intentionally or not maps out a logical career path for entrepreneurs and (my favourite part of this whole thing) acknowledges that things happen which we need turnarounds from. (The series began in 2019 with The 5-Day Turnaround: Be the leader you always wanted to be. for leaders/entrepreneurs, and was succeeded in 2020 — as Covid-19 took the world hostage — by The Crisis Turnaround: Lead through crisis and position your company for strength. , teaching leaders how to embrace challenges, so they can not only survive a crisis but thrive while doing it.
The author has since collaborated on a fourth book for this series — The Culture Turnaround: 9 Proven Ways to Create an Undeniable Culture came out late last year and is aimed at helping business leaders create a cohesive and unified organisation.)
I now feel like starting on book 1 and working my way through the series! Or maybe I should get the Audible version with Hilimire reading it himself? Hmm...

“By writing The Great Team Turnaround, Jeff Hilimire is trying to inspire people to take action. He wants the readers of this book to recognize that there is a better way for us to work together on a daily basis than the outdated rules passed down from the Industrial Society;” — Jack Stack, President & CEO of The Great Game of Business.

“Everything changed when I started learning about a different class of leaders. Each one is a wildly successful and transformative individual who has launched and grown significant organizations. But they’ve done it with humanity and a higher purpose… These leaders put their heart into what they were doing, and through their passion and focus on making the world a better place, built incredible businesses and movements.” — Jeff Hilimire, author, The Great Team Turnaround.

LESSONS LEARNT FROM THE BOOK READ:-
👯🏾♂️We all can utilise and benefit from inspiration.
👯🏾♂️PVTV creates unity( a unifying purpose that brings the members together as a team) within a company as it grows.
👯🏾♂️We need mentors to grow PVTV.
👯🏾♂️In PVTV, there's what is known as the a Peter's principle that says a person will rise in an organisation to the level of their incompetence: someone great at a particular role often will get regularly promoted until they reach a level where they don't succeeded anymore and become an enigma, someone who used to be great and is now struggling.
👯🏾♂️What gets measured gets done and is more impactful as everyone then knows how they can impact the goals and even create new ones.
👯🏾♂️The idea with PVTV is not to develop specific goals but to create a foundation for building a purpose driven,meaningful business and curb infighting or lack of team unity.
👯🏾♂️There is need to put the customer first, believe in each other as a team and focus on profitable growth.
👯🏾♂️PVTV shouldn't be in conflict with the companies overall purpose.
👯🏾♂️Adhering to professionality in business
👯🏾♂️Where there are separate PVTV's for a company overall different from that of an individual team,make sure that the individual teams PVTV coincide and lift the overall company's PVTV.
👯🏾♂️A team should have a purpose and unique vision.
👯🏾♂️Vision is the type of company you want to become and achieving vision will mean answering the "why" and "what" of your team.
👯🏾♂️The teams purpose should help the company achieve its purpose.
👯🏾♂️There should be time for rewards and rejoicing in team wins.
👯🏾♂️Decide whether your purpose and vision should focus on the team or the product.
👯🏾♂️Working together is what makes a team
👯🏾♂️A vision can change but purpose if done properly should be evergreen.
👯🏾♂️Vision describes the team you want to become or the product you want to be known for.
👯🏾♂️There's need to emulate positive ,excellent and growing teams
👯🏾♂️Importance of having tenets as a business as they are the things we need to do to achieve our vision.
👯🏾♂️No body wants to be managed, people want to be led via open book leadership.
👯🏾♂️'Smaller' is better for business operations while increasing revenue and profit: little solutions.
👯🏾♂️Maximize strength by focusing on quality over quantity.
👯🏾♂️Tenets are the how of achieving the vision of the business.
👯🏾♂️Good values as the beliefs of the business and are unifying,non negotiable,succinct ,and actionable
🏾♂️Importance of trust in a team.
👯🏾♂️The great game works with PVTV and is the ultimate operating system of any business.

Back in the 1980s, I was Officer in Charge of a Navy helicopter detachment in the island of Bahrain, in the Persian Gulf. The job to which I was directed required me to provide service to Commander, Middle East Forces, using the assigned helicopter to ferry the admiral wherever he wished to go. As it turned out, however, Commander, Middle East Forces rarely needed to be transported anywhere. Seeking other ways to become useful, my detachment elected to provide the best service we could to ships temporarily deployed to the Persian Gulf, transporting people, cargo and mail as desired. The Persian Gulf is a desolate place, and if we could improve the lives of the people there, we considered it quite worthwhile. One of my enlisted personnel, a Petty Officer named Polanco, held up a mailbag which contained a solitary letter, sent from the states to a deployed seaman, and noted, "This is what it's all about."
This book, Great Team Turnaround, focuses on PVTV (Purpose, Vision, Tenets, Values) for mission accomplishment. Purpose, per the author, is the company's reason for being. For us, 10,000 miles from home, that meant logistic support for ships in the Persian Gulf. Vision is the method by which the company becomes the entity that employees wish it to become. For us, following the motivation of Petty Officer Polanco, if one sailor in the Persian Gulf could gain benefit from the delivery of a letter from home, we were determined that he would get it. Tenets, for us, involved dedication to sailor support in the Gulf, and values involved adherence to the mission of rendering life as hospitable as possible to sailors deployed in this environmentally harsh area.
As can be seen, the lessons of Great Team Turnaround have their universal applications - the prescriptions of Jeff Hillmire can readily be applied to specific circumstances. I would, frankly, have preferred that he produce more prescriptions and fewer anecdotes, but he accomplished his objective of demonstrating how growth can be unleashed.

This might be one of my all-time favorite business books to recommend to entrepreneur friends, and I don't say that lightly. Jeff makes this so easy to understand and it's truly helpful.
The Purpose, Vision, Tenets, Values model is something I've implemented at my own company and had wild success with... and now this book has majorly inspired us to start The Great Game of Business (a book I ordered as soon as I finished the last page of The Great Team Turnaround).
Whether you lead a company or a team, or are a part of one, please read this book! It's incredible what you can do with a unified team and a solid PVTV to lead the way.

I wish I had this book on hand the first time I facilitated a teamwork workshop.
It is a refreshing take in analyzing how teams work, and it is made very relatable by being told as a story. It get's you invested and gets those problem solving creativw juices flowing.
A must as a resource when facilitating for teams and a great source of ideas on how to get some points across. Would buy again. Would share with colleagues.

A very interesting business book written like a story. I loved how the writer presented business strategies using a business case for team turnover to success based on aligning team members' values with the company's values. The model presented by the author can be used in any industry and service companies. Very valuable reading I recommend it to startups and new business projects to build successful relationships within team members and among teams.

June 1, 2022First of all, I want to say this book is a great read, well articulated writing, this book shows you insight on how to work together as groups handling different projects, and it goes a long way to explain why how to work together as a group and how to handle various kind of differences in groups and how to succeed in group projects, big ups to Jeff hillmire this book was so inspiring

A new leader at my work requested we read this book post re-org. It was fine. I'm skeptical about leadership maintaining this new method of working. The characters in the book didn't feel authentic, it was obvious their dialogue and exchanges were to illustrate a point. I prefer a more straightforward informative style of writing.

I have been looking for a way to implement some of the PVTV concepts in my own work and team. This book was a very tactical way to do that. Very helpful, my favorite of this series.

You need to read the previous book of this series to understand what this book says.
It's a fiction book and has a slow narrative.
It is a good book if you like this kind of book.

This book is a great tool to reflect and assess your business plan as a leader. In my country Zambia some of the tools mentioned are non existant but the big idea unlocks the mind to great ideas if critically thought through.
I have just assumed a leadership position and am taking my time to reflect on this great book before I open up to the process.
I give this book 4 stars and highly recommend it in the corridors of business.
Once my team is selected and business kikc starts, I will read it again for a step by step motivation tracking and guide.
Good read

Insightful read!
A complete guidance path in leadership and planning as a leader written like a story in a very interesting and inspiring way. This book clears how to turn your negative uninspiring work environment into a positive growing one through using the concept of PVTV ( Purpose, Vision, Tenets, and Values) and the great game. It was a great read for me personally since I lack the skill of leadership in my career and don't know how to open up to the process. Very recommended to anyone who started up a business and wants to make a successful positive trustful relationship among teamwork.
