How to Apply This
- Pick the right people.
Look for key qualities in people when hiring. These include a willingness to learn, a team-focused attitude, empathy, grit, and integrity. Although experience and qualifications are important, these qualities are the foundation of a good team. - Pair people up.
When you encounter a problem, pair people up based on their skill sets. Think about which team members would work well together and who has the necessary skills and experience to solve the problem. Creating the right combinations will drastically improve the effectiveness of your team. - Focus on diversity.
Studies show that diverse teams perform much better, particularly those with more women. That’s why you have to prioritize diversity during the hiring process and encourage everybody on the team to give their input.
