Moneyball and Six Thinking Hats are excellent approaches to for people and roles.
But they aren't enough. The key driver of top-tier teams is excellent ongoing safe communication.
To build communications, use team goals (e.g. OKRs & KPIs), team ways of working (e.g. TEAM FOCUS), and team positions (e.g. scorecards).
My notes about these are open source: https://joelparkerhenderson.github.io/ https://joelparkerhenderson.github.io/
Edit to explain abbreviations:
* OKRs = Objectives & Key Results
* KPIs = Key Performance Indicators
* TEAM = Talk, Evaluate, Assist, Motivate
* FOCUS = Frame, Organize, Collect, Understand, Synthesize
- rhizome 10y agoIs "TEAM FOCUS" an initialism, or is it there for EMPHASIS?

- jph 10y agoHa! You're right, these can sound like cargo cult if someone doesn't know what they mean. These teamwork ideas are worthwhile IMHO. YMMV. :)
