Key Lessons from this conversation with Mark Murphy:
teams don’t need to be friends to be effective
fake team-building activities can actually hurt performance
high-performing teams rely on five critical roles: director, achiever, stabilizer, trailblazer, harmonizer
it’s okay not to like everyone on your team—focus on results, not relationships
leadership on great teams is adaptive—who leads changes based on the situation
knowing your strengths and appreciating others’ roles builds trust and efficiency
team balance matters more than team bonding
great leaders don’t try to play every role—they delegate and empower others
when teams stall, identify which missing role is causing the blockage
success is measured by outcomes, not by how much fun the team has
