Thinking Focus

This month's Mindset Matters examines what a Team OS might resemble; every device you use has an OS (operating system) to ensure everything functions effectively and is optimised for performance. So, why can't we adopt the same approach for teams? High-performing teams nearly always have one, even if they may not recognise or refer to it as an OS! #highperformingteams #leadership #managementdevelopment

In today's rapidly evolving work environment, adaptability is key. We often hear stories of professionals who, even after years of experience with one system, resist switching to another.  Take, for example, someone familiar with Microsoft products transitioning to Google Workspace; it's a challenge! - Understanding why is crucial for encouraging change. Without this, resistance is natural. - A Team OS enhances team effectiveness and consistency beyond software. - Stability and shared mental models are vital. They ensure predictable and productive work outcomes. - Embracing change means recognising the benefits and streamlining work processes accordingly.
