In today’s fast-paced and ever changing business environment, it is more important than ever to build engaged, focused and collaborative teams – people who work together with a shared purpose and vision and know their “Why”, as Simon Sinek would say.

High performing teams focus on what matters, and understand that success results from team effort. Open communication is often at the heart of a successful team, with not only a sense of commitment towards the team’s goal, but to each other as team members. Leaders of high performing teams will create and sustain a respectful and inclusive culture, where teams who bring complementary skills and experience will exceed the abilities of any single individual.

Given the importance of team-based work in today’s economy, experts have focused on using evidence-based organisational research to pinpoint the defining attributes of high-performance teams. Chartwell Speakers is proud to represent a diverse range of these experts from a wide variety of backgrounds, who focus on what it takes to build and maintain high performance teams:​
