Among the many important concepts Rob brings forward, he highlights: n nThere's a difference between Taskwork and Teamwork, and most organizations are only focused on the Taskwork at the expense of team skills;n nOrganizations must organize to develop trust; they do this by building Psychological Safety, a condition where people feel safe to talk about the truth;n nLeaders have to learn to become vulnerable and admit their faults. Only by leading as they want their teams to act will they inspire people to act the same;n nInstitutionalizing the practice of debriefing can increase team performance significantly, allowing individuals and organizations to achieve new levels of success.n nIn the end, the key to an organization's long-term success is its practice of accountability and the degree to which its leaders hold themselves and their teams accountable for the decisions they make.
