No Bullsh!t Leadership

Team Building Exercises Are Useless. Do This Instead | Moment 178

No Bullsh!t Leadership

Show Notes

Team building exercises don’t build teams. Only leadership does.

If you’re thinking about investing in time away from the office, think again. These days don’t move the needle on team dynamics, trust, or performance. If you dislike someone before the paintball game, you'll still dislike them after it.

So by all means, take your team out for some fun. Just don't mistake it for culture change.
