High performance in teams doesn’t happen by accident. When I think about the teams I’ve been part of where we performed really well over time, in each case, this high performance wasn’t accidental. It was carefully nurtured by the leader of that team. These leaders were purposeful in doing a few specific things. Here are… The post Five ways to build a high-performance team culture first appeared on Suzi McAlpine | The Art of Leadership.

When it comes to thriving organizations, leaders are looking to invest in their employees and their employees are looking to their employer for an opportunity to grow and learn. And what the best leaders have learned, is that leadership development brings value at every level. Employees gain new knowledge and abilities.

One misguided, although altruistic, idea is that everyone should be trying to save the world from problems such as racism and global warming. People agonize over their inability to fix the issues that continue to cause harm. One person, try as they might, will find it difficult to make a dent in these behemoth problems. However, the power for real change could be right next door.

We all know that body language is important, and it’s especially important for anyone in leadership. Any time you have a face-to-face meeting, or even a meeting over Zoom, your body language is crucial. How you look when you say something is often as important as what you’re say and how you’re saying it. Just as you choose your words carefully, it’s important to make sure your body language isn’t sending unintended messages.

One of the most significant themes in my practice is the leader whose team of direct reports are experiencing difficulties working together. Most of my clients are CEOs, and they face this challenge with their company's senior leadership team, but it's a dilemma that can occur at every level of an organization. And while the leader isn't solely responsible for their team's culture, they typically have the greatest ability to influence it--for better and for worse.
