In 2015, Google’s People Analytics team asked an ambitious question: “Why do some teams perform better than others?" They looked at a variety of potential explanations, mostly based on team composition. And found very little that could explain performance. But when the researchers turned their attention from the attributes of the team toward its regular behaviors, traditions, and norms, they found elements that made a difference
Dependability
Structure and clarity
Meaning
Impact
Psychological safety
In this episode, we'll examine each of those elements in turn and explain what you can do to help your team work the way the best teams work together.
