We are on multiple teams because modern organisations need to operate as dynamic networks of teams to keep up with a rate of change that is outpacing their hierarchical structures that rely on rigid policies and procedures. Operating as a dynamic network of teams is a pathway to a more agile, dynamic and connected way of working. For most of us, teamwork on multiple teams feels like a lot of work and not much team, draining us of energy, attention, and time. Teamership gives you the tools to make multiple teams work. It exposes what has been hiding in plain sight - that our assumptions about how work gets done in modern organisations needs to shift.

Teamership as a competitive advantage at all levels of an organisation. Now is the time to work together as connected leadership teams, dynamic leaders, and energised individuals.
