Many organizations talk about high-performing teams, yet few define what it truly means or help their leaders to build them. This creates a kind of leadership gap — a disparity between what organizations say they want and what they are doing to get there.
For example, if your organization talks about having high-performing teams or a high-performing culture, does it also:
Have a senior leadership team that embodies high performance?
Have a consistent framework for defining team effectiveness?
Prioritize a leader’s ability to build effective teams when making promotion decisions or identifying high-potentials?
Equip leaders with the knowledge and skills needed to improve team dynamics & performance?
