Great article. The best boss I ever had promoted this type of teamwork by having his direct reports play together. We would go sailing or to jazz clubs or whatever that would get us to connect as people first, and then as employees. And most of this happened on our days off. As a result, we worked very hard, accomplished tons of great stuff, and had a blast doing it.

Thanks for your comment, Eric.

I think your point about off site meeting is a good one. Those might also provide opportunities to discover more similarities.

Fascinating. Growing up in a large family, I learned early the value of people skills and the joy of teamwork. This post really illustrates that well, Kevin. Thanks.

I also love the fact that these are not mutually exclusive, that you can accelerate these “accelerators” through purposeful combination. For instance, Proximity and Resonance are combined every time we do an offsite. For me, offsites have always provided a valuable experience in getting to know my coworkers better in a personal environment that deepens the quality of our professional interactions.

Great post.
