Do you have one team or subteams?

I worked with a team that was “one team” on reality, it was a collection of subteams.

What people optimized for

• their own workload

• their own objectives

• their own recognition

  
  

What the team lost

• shared priorities

• fast information flow

• mutual support when pressure rose

  
  

What one leader said

• “This is not working for me, I do not get more payout than I invest.”

  
  

The moment I heard that, I knew the real topic.It was not collaboration.It was fairness.

Reflection: where does helping the team feel like a bad deal in your organization?
