What makes the most outstanding teams? Daniel Goleman Draws on extensive research to reveal how star teams exhibit emotional intelligence at the group level. This means the team is self-aware, manages itself well, has empathy toward other groups, and handles relationships with them effectively. Self-awareness at the team level means members openly acknowledge and work according to each other's strengths and limits. Self-management sees agreement on acceptable behaviors and proactive resolution of problems before they become crises. Empathy and relationship management between teams ensures clear communication and collaboration towards a common goal. Research shows that at the core of high-performing teams is a feeling of psychological safety, a sense of “I belong here” felt by every member. When people feel they belong in a group they can relax, connect well, and offer their best ideas and energies. Goleman sees that feeling of belonging in a group as a more natural, ground up way to achieve the goals of inclusion and diversity, without having to impose a top-down mandate. Using examples from top teams, Goleman reveals the key to building and maintaining excellent teams that consistently produce extraordinary results.
