Playing as a Team: Strategies for Better Communication

Playing as a Team: Strategies for Better Communication

In your team, have you ever felt that decisions or priorities were not consistently communicated well? Is the transfer of information occurring in DMs rather than team meetings? Have you watched team members (or yourself) burn out, feeling like issues are never quite addressed fully? Does your team ever struggle to get things done correctly and on time?

Good news - these issues frequently occur because of poor communication in a directionally confused environment with low psychological safety. Why is that good news? Because whether you're a team member or leader, you have the power to change it. Capt. David Marquet was able to use intent-based communication to encourage the worst performing U.S. nuclear submarine to grow into an incredible award-winning team, and you can lean on the same tactics.

During this session, we will share how using brain-friendly communication techniques can help your team collaborate, play, and win together.
