Humble Leaders
People with better social sensitivity and an emotional perception(higher EQ) are a better hire than those with individual performance scores.
Humble people who listen attentively, and admit their mistakes become enablers in the team leading the group achieving it's fullest potential. The team as a whole begins to behave in the same way and increase its overall collective intelligence.

The Science of Teambuilding
Psychological safety in team building
It all comes down to trust, which is one of the characteristics teambuilding...
For an effective teambuilding:
- Think outside the box when defining the format that works best for all team-members;
- Avoid activities where people are singled out and might feel embarrassed. These create the opposite of the trust-building effect needed to build strong teams.
- Effective teambuilding allows teams to tackle an achievable challenge together. Working through a challenge together increases oxytocin and group cohesiveness.

Storm To Perform: The 4 Stages Of Team Productivity
Group Development Theory
Dr. Bruce Tuckman, a psychology professor, synthesized team development into four basic stages: Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing.
Forming
This stage of teamwork is all about first meetings and first impressions.
What everyone needs most is a clear understanding of their part in the journey and a setup for building emotional connections. Setting goals together puts their skills and interests into the open.
Storming
Most teams go through the storming stage in some form or another because discord is inevitable. The key value to emphasize in the team is positive intent.
A little conflict is needed to bring upfront weak spots in projects and to bring new valid arguments to the table. But constant storming leads to the destruction of productivity, projects, and ultimately, the team itself.

The benefits isolation can have on your work
Less communication might be beneficial
So many people across the world are now working remotely. They may be concerned about the loss of regular facetime with their team.
But the latest psychological literature suggests that con...
Group communication
In a 2015 study, researchers found that more communication in a group results in the team members quickly converging on a consensus without really exploring alternatives.
In less well-connected groups, team members suffered a bit with information gathering but were less likely to reach a consensus too quickly. Each member built on their own theories, which resulted in a greater diversity of ideas.
Alone time
Researchers tested how the rhythm of our communication can influence our problem-solving. The participants were divided into three groups.
- Groups with continuous interaction had a good average performance, but the team members tended to conform to mediocre solutions.
- People working independently didn't have the opportunity to benefit from other's solutions.
- The intermittent communication group was the best of both worlds. They could build on the diversity of the ideas that were created independently.
