Season 8 Episode 38: 6 Attributes of High-Performing Teams

In the competitive world of business, sustaining success over long periods is a challenge. On this episode of The Thermostat podcast, Jason V. Barger explores the traits that set high-performing teams apart. From the Navy Seals to Starbucks and Salesforce, he uncovers the common attributes that help these teams not only achieve greatness but also maintain it.

Summary

Why do some teams consistently outperform others, even in the face of challenges? Barger identifies six key characteristics:

  1. Trust: The foundation of any successful team. High-performing teams prioritize building and maintaining trust, especially in today’s low-trust environment.

  2. Engaged Leadership: Leaders who are actively involved with their teams, fostering open communication and creating a sense of connection to the company’s mission.

  3. Defined Roles and Goals: Everyone understands their individual responsibilities and how they contribute to the overall success of the team and organization.

  4. Clear and Courageous Conversations: Teams that address challenges directly and aren’t afraid to have difficult conversations, fostering a culture of transparency.

  5. Grit and Resilience: The ability to navigate obstacles with determination and flexibility, focusing on solutions rather than dwelling on challenges.

  6. Continuous Learning and Development: A commitment to growth and innovation, constantly reimagining the future and striving for improvement.

Notable Quotes

  • “When crisis hits, you don’t rise to the level of your expectations, you fall to the level of your training.”

  • “The best leaders, teams and organizations…make things mentionable so they can become more manageable.”

  • “Preserve the core and stimulate progress.”

Questions to Ponder

  1. What attribute could your team focus on to elevate performance?
  2. How can you foster trust within your team?
  3. What conversations need to happen to move your team forward?

Remember, high performance isn’t a one-time achievement. By focusing on these key attributes, teams can cultivate a culture of excellence that endures over time.

ABOUT THE THERMOSTAT

Conversations and micro-thoughts to engage your mind and heart.

A thermostat is proactive. It sets the temperature in a room. Controls the temperature. Regulates the temperature. But in today’s distracted, fast-paced and digital world, it’s easy for individuals and organizations to act more like thermometers, slipping into reactionary thinking, becoming scattered and inconsistent. The most compelling leaders, teams, organizations, families, or collection of humans of any kind operate in thermostat mode. They calibrate their mind and heart to set the temperature for the vision and culture they want to create. Jason Barger, globally celebrated author, keynote speaker, and founder of Step Back Leadership Consulting, is the host of The Thermostat, a podcast journey to discover authentic leadership, create compelling cultures and find clarity of mission, vision, and values.
