Competition, Learning, and Mourning for Failure

#245: Imagine this. You think you've been hired into a team of all A players. Think Wayne Gretsky, Michael Jordan, Lionel Messi, etc. Instead, what's really happened is you've been assigned to the team that is nothing more than the people that played behind the people that played behind the A players. Yeah, you've been demoted to the third string team.

You think, ok, at least I made a team and I'm not bagging groceries (is that still a thing?) down at the local market. Now that you're on a team, how do you plug in and help make the team better?

In this episode, we speak with Dr. David Burkus about his latest book “Best Team Ever”. We go into the 3 key areas that both the manager and the players need to understand in order to actually create a team that might even be able to beat a team of A players.
