Short YouTube clip (May 9, 2024) by Donald Burns arguing that teams are made of diverse personalities and must be intentionally composed — "building a team is like creating a recipe." He warns that too many submissive members will prevent anyone from stepping up to lead and emphasizes balancing personality types when forming teams.
Teams are a collection of lots of different personalities. I'm sure you've heard this before. There's no I in team. A lot of people hold on to this fantasy that working on a team is like a magical experience where everyone gets along. So understand that teams are a collection of individuals who all have different personalities. Building a team is very much like creating a recipe. Gotta be very careful about the personalities that you put together. 2 Too many submissive members means no one's going to step up to take the lead, so it's definitely a balancing act.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
