Build trust and achieve high performance in your business by
redefining team culture.
Have you ever been on a team where the talent was strong, but the team
wasn't very good? On the flip side, have you ever been on a team where
not every single member was a rock star, but something about the team
just worked?
In this book, corporate consultant Mike Robbins dives deep into the ways
great businesses build trust, collaborate, and operate at their peak
level. As an expert in teamwork, leadership, and emotional intelligence,
Mike draws on more than 20 years of experience working with top
companies like Google and Microsoft, as well as his baseball career with
the Kansas City Royals. And, while each team and organization have their
own unique challenges, goals, and dynamics, there are some universal
qualities that allow teams to truly come together and thrive.
The book's core principles include facilitating an environment of
psychological safety, fostering inclusion and belonging, addressing and
navigating conflict, and maintaining a healthy balance of high
expectations and empathy. Throughout, Mike shares powerful exercises and
tools he's successfully utilized in the keynote speeches, group
sessions, and corporate retreats that he delivers, so that you and your
team can communicate more authentically, give and receive feedback with
skill, and create deeper connections.
"Mike Robbins shares tangible techniques that leaders and teams can use
to excel, backs up his ideas with important research, and provides a
road map for creating a team environment of personal connection and
optimal performance."
