Ford’s team created the assembly line and the five day work week. Steve Jobs’ team created the first real personal computer. Walt Disney’s team created an empire around a happy little cartoon mouse.
Great things can be accomplished by businesses when they assemble a group with the right set of skills and set them to work on a project. As they learn to work together, they produce a product that’s far more than the sum of its individual parts.
Know that your team is put together well and that the group is well balanced, and put your best leadership skills in place to manage that team. That spells success for today’s organizations, even as they face the constant headwinds of change.
