Team #1 – Leadership Teams That Work Together Work Best

team #1

What stands out about top leadership teams? They think and act as leaders of the organisation first and foremost, rather than leaders only of their  function or discipline.

They see the leadership team as their first team or Team #1 (*). All teams thrive with trust, divergent thinking, healthy conflict, commitment and shared accountability, as shown in the Lencioni Model below. To be truly impactful, executive leadership teams assume collective ownership for the most important results for the business.  They have a whole-of-business or enterprise mindset.

The power of Team#1

You can expect leadership teams who adopt this mindset to be explicit about their everyday expectations of each other.  Here are some examples of what they commit to.
