THE RISE OF ROBERTS
THE AVIATOR
WHAT IS THE SECRET SAUCE FOR THE PERFECT TEAM?
What are the qualities that make for the perfect team? What if I told you Google spent millions of dollars to find the answer? Charles Duhigg, author of Smarter Faster Better, explains in his book about “Saturday Night Live” that while there was tension and infighting, the cast members still felt safe enough to give feedback to one another without fear of punishment. How did creator Lorne Michaels, who managed a team of writers and comedians, produce a high-quality show under extremely rigid time constraints? Lorne Michaels created a team that has two simple rules; everyone speaks and everyone has to listen. As a result, he brought all the egos in the room to create a productive struggle with one purpose, to design a successful show. What “SNL” knew about creativity, Google spent millions to find the answer.
Google found that an environment where everyone can speak up equally and is skillful in reading each other's emotions creates a sense of psychological safety. Google found that who was on a team does not matter. The research found, how a team interacts is the secret sauce. The people who are on a team matter much less than HOW those people interact. Roberts, our PLC must value the norms that were created. Everyone here at Roberts has a voice, but we must not forget to listen to others. My goal for this campus as life long learners is for you to understand that we can always learn from each other, but it starts with understanding your voice matters and you must be intentional about listening.
