Team development strategies from the world of sports psychology

As one of the first psychologists to work with elite sports teams in the UK, George Karseras knows a thing or two about winning ways. His many years of experience in occupational psychology have led to the creation of a science-backed code for better organisational teaming. George offers a new perspective on team building that puts mental trust and shared purpose before emotional safety and prioritises probing questions over psychometric testing. He talks of using deals and contracts, skin in the game and lists of demands to get on the same page and even has a (gentle) crack at Patrick Lencioni! Cracking the code on performance means stepping out of your comfort zone - are you ready?! P.S. His book, Build Better Teams, is my favourite on team building - EVER!

Why you should listen: task-first team development

• Leadership principles for building trust - HINT: it’s not about ‘getting to know you’

We explore leadership strategies for hybrid teams 

• Important agreements for team development - we must do this first!
• A leadership perspective on creating shared understanding - quickly
• Active listening as a key leadership skill

The first leadership principle is: it’s not about you

Dr Toby Travis believes mission fulfillment with wellbeing is the leadership sweet spot we should be aiming for. And it can’t be done without trust. Engineered from his own experiences in the workplace and doctoral research, Toby has crafted a bridge metaphor to illustrate how the right foundations and materials must be in place for trust to be built. Instead of conceptualising trust, he turns it into an assessable and actionable component of leadership that can create a workplace culture people want to be part of. During our conversation, Dr Toby shares his wise counsel for being a leader that both gives and gets trust.

Why you should listen: Does your corporate culture walk the talk?

• Swap leadership control for team support

We explore trust built on servant leadership

• Outsource your leadership confidence with mentoring
• Repair relationships through leadership humility
• Live your leadership values to inspire trust

Shownotes: www.zoerouth.com/podcast/adam-moore-leadership-framework

About Adam Moore:

Even as a second-year carpentry apprentice, a young Adam discovered an appetite for responsibility, planning and ongoing learning that have been hallmarks of his career ever since. Yet he didn’t identify these as burgeoning ‘leadership’ skills at the time.

It wasn’t until years later while working as a project manager in London that his then-boss helped join the dots when he told him that although Adam had been working for him for the past two years, it should have been the other way around.

This started Adam on the mindset transition from craftsman to business leader. By day, he was overseeing multi-million-dollar construction projects for diverse clientele that included Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co and Qantas among others. By night, he was reading about leadership and more critically analysing his own management of people.

Today, Adam is known for his commitment to growing his people’s potential. He measures leadership success as the point at which his team members put him out of a job.
