The second most empowering shift teams that transitioned from floundering to flourishing, was to make the team a safer place to speak more of their truth.

Over the past decade, I’ve studied what separates floundering from flourishing teams. The findings are clear.

The #3 reason teams flounder is because of the time and energy wasted in unproductive and ineffective meetings. Teams who flounder claim over 40% of meetings are a waste of their time and energy.

The #2 reason teams flounder is as significant, given it’s a symptom of the first: team members aren’t open to learning with and from one another.

In my previous newsletter, I shared, based on a decade of data from coaching leadership teams, 80% of teams flounder more than flourish.

Over the past month I’ve been analysing ten years of data from coaching executive and leadership teams. The results are clear, whilst unsurprising, they present infinite possibilities.
