Team up.
Teams are essential to achieving more together in a fast and complex world.
If you don’t have a deliberate approach to team performance, how are you going to support high performing teams?
About the book
If you are responsible for developing leaders or leading teams yourself, this book is for you.
Whether you look at it financially, professionally or strategically, team performance is a competitive advantage for leaders and organisations. The time is now for leaders who can step bravely beyond thinking of teams simply as a unit of resources under command and control to recognising teams as a dynamic collection of people who can be greater than the sum of their parts.
Team Up will help you to be clearer about:
- How teams are changing in the 2020s and why that matters if you want to stay relevant.
- The Team Performance System – a way of working in teams, not just another team building program.
- Supporting the shift from being individually busy to collectively productive through an approach that is resilient, flexible and adaptable by design.
Filled with anecdotes, examples and exercises for you to implement, this book gives you both a call to action and a path to action.

What’s in the book
What was
Part I looks at the forces that have shaped the way that teams operate in our organisations. I will ask you to consider whether these are still relevant for the 2020s. What are the assumptions under which you are trying to get performance out of the teams that you are a part of? Are they relevant for the 2020s and beyond or are they based on models that worked for a world that no longer exists?
What is
Part II is about giving you a way to see teams as they are – not as they were or as we want them to be. We need to see teams as complex, dynamic human systems rather than static or predictable structures. You will be able to dive into the components of the Team Performance System, which I’ve designed.
What will be
Finally, Part III explores what will be in our teams. What will be for teams that can combine high levels of each element within the Team Performance System. What will be required of teams as we predict what is coming over the horizon. What will be required from team members, leaders and organisations if they are to benefit from high performing teams.
