High-performing teams feel like magic. The way their members work together is mesmerizing and the feats they accomplish are mind-blowing.
So, it is no wonder that we want to know what makes those teams special. A few ideas that come to mind right away are:
- Everybody on the team is a genius and top of their class
- The team’s manager is able to perfectly define and scope the work
- Everybody is paid lots of money for the successful completion of their work.
All of the above scenarios might help, but none of them guarantee high performance. More important for the success of the team is how well people work together.
