Why are some teams more motivated, more innovative, and more successful than others? Why do some groups of talented and seemingly compatible people fall short against lesser teams with less suitable members? And why are we still so surprised about which team members excel, and which ones fail?
We know that highperforming teams deliver higher value results more consistently. But how do you build that high performing team? More often than not, great teams don’t become great because they recruit top talent or pay top dollar. Instead, building the best team ever is about shaping the habits and culture that bring out the best in each team member.
In this persuasive and provocative session, Dr. David Burkus argues that talent doesn’t make the team. The team makes the talent. Drawing on decades of research and diverse case studies, David reveals what some of the most effective teams in the world do differently, and how you can start doing the same on your team. Participants will leave with a clear and concise understanding of how the culture of their team affects its performance and a simple and practical blueprint cultivating a Best Team Ever environment.
