Building A Strong Leadership Team - No Ropes Courses Involved

"Without conflict, you don't have innovation. So I want to make sure people use their voices." And use it effectively in a leadership team when there are a number of strong voices present. I spoke with Tish Squillaro of CANDOR Management Consulting about the art of building leadership teams. This is something you'll do more as you progress, but the principles apply to any team. Tish, is a candid consulting expert who has worked with Salesforce and IBM. She knows her content inside and out and one of her core interests is team dynamics, a crucial aspect of scaling organizations. Tish shared her insights on her approach to leadership team dynamics or what she calls team chemsitry. She talks about the qualities that a leadership team should possess, and why these are so crucial for organizational success. She also discusses the challenges of recruitment, the evolution of leadership teams as companies scale, and the tools she uses. Here's a peek into some of what we covered: 🎯 The importance of a leadership team that not only drives the business but works well together. It's the first team first. 🔍 The complexity of the interview process when you're looking for skills and personality. 📊 The use of DISC behavioral profiles as a tool for understanding team dynamics. 🔧 The actionable steps to improve team chemistry after identifying gaps in leadership teams. 🎙️ The significance of effective communication and conflict resolution. I've already applied what I learned so I know this episode is a treasure of useful information!
