What makes a team truly effective?

In this episode of the Greenbook Podcast, Karen Lynch hosts Sarah Thurber and Blair Miller from FourSight to explore the science of building effective teams. They discuss the FourSight Thinking Profile, which identifies four thinking styles—clarifying, ideating, developing, and implementing—and how these styles can be harnessed to solve complex problems collaboratively. The conversation also delves into their new book, "Good Team, Bad Team: Lead Your People to Go After Big Challenges, Not Each Other," offering valuable guidance for anyone leading a team. Discover how to leverage cognitive diversity, the importance of hands-in leadership, and strategies for aligning team and individual purposes to enhance team performance. Tune in to gain actionable strategies to elevate your team's effectiveness and drive better results.
