The secret to a high-performing team is if everyone
TRUSTS EACH OTHER.
![Page 6: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

They can challenge each other without fear of retribution, they can share ideas without the fear of being called stupid, and they can help each other get better without embarrassment.

Google’s project Aristotle is one of the coolest pieces of research about what makes a good team.
![Page 10: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A team of people inside Google’s People Operations department studied many teams at Google to see what
made them work well with each other.
![Page 11: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Google learned that there are five key things that make for a successful team:
1
How comfortable do you feel taking risks on this team without feeling insecure or embarrassed?
PSYCHOLOGICAL SAFETY
![Page 12: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
2Can you depend on your teammates and hold them accountable?
DEPENDABILITY
![Page 13: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3
Are goals and roles clearly defined?
STRUCTURE AND CLARITY
![Page 14: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
4
Is everyone on the team working on something that is personally important to each of them?
MEANING OF WORK
![Page 15: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
5
Do you believe that the work you’re doing matters?
IMPACT OF WORK
![Page 16: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
They found that the first item, psychological safety, was by far the most important on the list.
Without it, the other four don’t matter.

Have you ever held back from sharing anything at work because you were worried about how people
might react to it?
![Page 19: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
We all try to avoid any situation that will affect how our coworkers and managers perceive us.

almost every area of work. They were:

FEELING OFSAFETYSo, how do we create that
on the team?

TRUSTTRUSTis earned and built over time, and you’ll only get
trust from others if you give it first.
Here are some tips on how I would build trust on the team:
![Page 26: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
1
Share a big mistake you made, or a time that you were confused or embarrassed to share work.
Showing that you’re vulnerable and are willing to open up will set the tone for others to open up.
BE A ROLE MODEL
![Page 27: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2
You need to work hard to make sure that no one is scared of sharing anything.
Remind employees that it’s okay to fail and make mistakes, it’s about learning.
REMOVE THE FEAR
![Page 28: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

3
When something goes wrong, instead of asking “who did this?”, ask “what can we learn from this?”
Work with everyone to figure out what happened and find a way so it doesn’t happen again (better documentation, more thorough checklist, etc.)
STOP BLAMING
![Page 30: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
4As a leader, you need to be mindful of the fact that not everyone learns the same way, not everyone is interested in the same things, and not everyone is as knowledgeable as you.
EMPATHIZE
![Page 31: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Researchers at MIT and Carnegie Mellon have discovered that similar to individual I.Q., teams have
their own collective intelligence.
![Page 32: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
“Collective intelligence is significantly correlated to group composition, and is higher with a higher
concentration of females in the group.”
According to the authors of the study:
![Page 33: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Its main predictors are
- social sensitivity- the distribution of conversational turn-taking - the proportion of female group members
![Page 34: Secrets to a Good Team](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f9c09b760da32f4b8b5427/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Women generally perform better on measures of social sensitivity, which makes women more
valuable in the workplace.

Build an environment where teams are comfortable sharing things with each other. As team members
feel secure with each other they’ll work better together.
