Unlocking Synergies: The Alchemy of Agile Teams
When assembling a group of individuals, team work could emerge but not always. Team work should make the equation 1+1=3 come to life. Hopefully, individuals bring the necessary task skills to the table, yet they may fall short in the realm of team skills.
Team skills, the art of harmonizing individual strengths into a collective force, can be cultivated and significantly enhance the chances of transforming a group into a high-performing team—or, at the very least, a performing one. The real challenge lies in finding the delicate balance where the value of synergies outweighs the costs of communication overhead.
