Leadership Lounge | Ep. 11
What do top-performing teams have in common?
How well a leadership team performs can make or break an organization. But, given that market conditions are in constant flux, and C-suites are shouldering more responsibility than ever before, getting the balance right in your top team is far from easy.
So, what are some of the key characteristics of a high-performing leadership team? How do successful teams foster a culture of collaboration and trust? And, how do you go about having uncomfortable conversations with your team?
In this episode of Leadership Lounge, we talk to some of our trusted advisors—Emmy Melville, Nicholas Anderson, and Miriam Capelli—who share their perspectives on:
-
How CEOs can elevate their team’s performance and drive the organization forward.
-
Why productive tension is important for top-performing C-suites.
-
How psychometric data can aid challenging conversations.
-
Why T-shaped leaders are considered key to the success of an executive leadership team.

Four things you’ll learn from this episode
-
Building your top team quickly is key. The CEOs who take longer to do so often find it difficult to establish the right team dynamics.
-
Trust and accountability are two key traits of high-performing teams. But to build trust, every member of the team must be prepared to look at themselves and how their behavior contributes to building or eroding trust. It’s not the role of the CEO alone.
-
One misconception that holds CEOs back from building a high-performing team is the idea that everyone needs to work in perfect harmony. In fact, the most successful C-suite teams are those who know how to productively navigate interpersonal friction.
-
Addressing issues in a top team isn’t easy. Enter into these types of conversations aware of what your own strengths and potential derailers are. Role modelling openness and transparency is key.
