Elana Friedman, an expert in organisational development and team dynamics, joins James Lawther and Jimmy Barber this week to discuss the secrets of high-performing teams.

Elana shares her journey from South Africa to the UK, and how her experiences shaped her desire to help teams and organisations thrive. Together, the hosts and Elana explore the Adaptable Team Framework model and the elements that drive team success: clear outcomes, practical actions, and the right mindset.

Some of the key points include:

• Why high performing teams are about more than just results—they’re about meaning, enjoyment, and continuous learning.
• The importance of aligning systems and processes with team goals (and why “stop the stupid” is a mantra worth adopting!).
• How beliefs and assumptions shape team culture, and why healthy conflict and trust are vital.

This episode is packed with insights, real-world examples, and actionable tips for anyone looking to boost their team’s performance and enjoyment at work.

And don’t miss the cliffhanger—next time, Elana returns to discuss team leadership and learning rhythms!
