Over two decades old, author John C. Maxwell’s famous quote, “teamwork makes the dream work,” remains just as relevant as ever before. Teamwork offers a larger pool of resources which can produce better solutions and improve efficiency and output. It can foster a feeling of belonging and reduce stress simply by having strong bonds with teammates. The reality is, however, that not all teams have maximized their potential as a high-performing team. As with anything worth having, creating a high-performing team takes work and attention. In this first episode of a new series, Dewey, Rae, and Bryana provide a vision for what a high-performing team looks like by identifying productive and unproductive behaviors, and helping leaders determine where to start.
