HIGH PERFORMING TEAMS
Turbocharged teaming
The feeling of being part of a high performing team is unmistakable.
Everyone knows their role, processes evolve and constantly improve, and psychological safety is shared by all. We help teams attain this state and achieve more than they thought possible.
Collaborate powerfully
Create opportunities
Deliver valuable results
Science has revealed the secrets of high-performing teams
What sets the best teams apart? Skill and talent, of course. But, just as critically, they know how to work together.
“Teaming” abilities enable members to collaborate effectively—whether they’ve been working together for years, or just met. This includes rallying around a compelling purpose, and creating an environment where everyone feels safe speaking up.
We help teams recognize and troubleshoot problems, so they can continuously improve. And we equip team members with the teaming skills they need to excel.

High performance is achieved with 7 team behaviors
Set new norms for better results
Learn to spot unhelpful patterns your team falls into. You’ll then establish norms for new behaviors that will drive better outcomes.
Remember the impact of your work
See the value that your team’s work creates for others. You’ll also reconnect with what you find personally meaningful about your role.
Clarify roles and responsibilities
Routinely clarify what needs to be done, and by who. You’ll also establish context for goals and criteria for completion.
Act in ways that inspire trust
Show each other that your words and actions can be counted on. You’ll build genuine relationships, and embody generosity.
Foster psychological safety
Cultivate an environment where everyone feels safe asking questions, voicing concerns, and sharing ideas that challenge the status quo.
Hold each other accountable
Practice making agreements and following through on them. When breakdowns in accountability happen, manage them gracefully.
Generate novel ideas and pick the best
Spot and seize opportunities for new ideas. You’ll come up with creative solutions to problems, and brainstorm effectively as a group.
The highest-performing individuals complete tasks 10x faster than their slowest peers. The highest-performing teams? 2000x faster.
But just putting together a group of star performers doesn’t guarantee team success. A number of common problems can derail things—from silos with conflicting agendas, to attitudes that favor individual triumph over team success.
