The Insight Formula for Team Success

We have found that team success requires four growth elements that must exist to achieve high-performing teams.

  1. Team members must personally be living their passion through the purpose, products, services or processes of the organization.
  2. Team members must have the talents and skills to shape flexible strategy.
  3. Team collaboration must align to the organization's goals and to each member's known, unique talents and skills
  4. Team members must have the skills to execute process leadership.
