The success of your team’s problem-solving will come down to three things:?

  1. Cognitive Diversity: Do you have relevant and diverse knowledge, perspectives and heuristics in the room?

  1. People Show-up: Is their expertise accessible because the people are present, open, and have EQ skills to influence and share?

  1. Environment of Collaboration: Is there the space and clarity of context where your people can listen to each other and problem solve, rather than competing to be ‘right’?? No Fear of Speaking Out (FOSO).

It is the creative friction of those differences that sparks innovation and leverage.?

That delivers the Diversity Bonus [Prof. Scott Page] and accelerates the quality and speed of your team’s work.

I have a quick diagnostic tool you can use if you want to put some measures on the above. Just click here to get started.

Happy to brainstorm a strategy with you: find a time for a chat here.

PS: Is the pressure on your leaders showing up in irritation, friction, and wasting time and energy in argument? I’m running a how-to workshop for senior executives, business owners and HR leaders to build cohesion in your leaders. To take them from isolated and stressed to calm, in control and dynamic, working well together.
