Emotion at Work Podcast – High-Performing Teams: Part 1 In this episode, Phil Willcox explores the critical role of emotions in fostering high-performing teams. This is the first part of a mini-series that delves into the essence of high performance and how emotions drive it. What’s in This Episode? Phil dives deep into: Emotion-Driven Performance: Why emotions are at the heart of high-performing teams and the idea that "you can't think your way into high performance." Blueprint for High-Performing Teams: Introducing a framework developed through extensive work with construction industry teams, with insights shared to test and apply more broadly. Key Levers for High Performance: Covering four out of eight factors from the blueprint: Meetings – Using the "POST" approach (Purpose, Outcome, Structure, Timing) to ensure meetings propel performance forward. Accountability – Clarifying roles and responsibilities to drive efficiency and effectiveness. Decision-Making – Leveraging strategies like premortems to anticipate and navigate challenges effectively. Relationships – Building trust, support, and constructive challenge to strengthen team dynamics. Reflection Prompts Throughout the episode, Phil poses thought-provoking questions to encourage deeper reflection, such as: Are your meetings designed to enhance or hinder performance? How clear are accountabilities within your team? What would a premortem reveal about your decision-making? Are relationships in your team rooted in trust, support, and compassion? A Glimpse Ahead This mini-series will continue with a focus on the remaining four levers: Well-being, Performance, Recognition, and Communication.
