What’s the book about?
In our book, we tell you exactly how to create high-performing teams.
85% of job success comes from being able to collaboratively solve problems, resolve conflict and inspire others (really?). Get this right and you’ll have truly high-performing teams. Leave it out, and you get people fighting each other, zoning out of work and ultimately leaving.
Inspire everyone around you
Influence, persuade and show true leadership to other stakeholders, regardless of where you sit in the hierarchy
Make teammates feel like heroes
Communicate in a way that makes everyone in your team feel unstoppable and enhances their performance
Develop a powerful mindset
Feel unstoppable and take responsibility for your job and workplace relationships in a way you’ve never done before
- EQ is the new IQ: We explain why people skills are so important, especially when working in cross-functional teams.
- PLEASE shut up & listen to resolve conflict: Our PLEASE framework gives you all the practical tools you need to resolve conflict. Achieve win-win outcomes that everyone buys into and make stakeholders feel like heroes.
- Become a relationship MASTER: We walk you through each step of our MASTER framework. Build long-lasting relationships and push aside negative behaviour, creating psychological safety for everyone.
- Grow your influence with empathetic LEADership: We introduce a new type of leadership based on empathy. Follow our LEAD framework to inspire and persuade everyone around you, regardless of where you sit in the hierarchy.
- READY, set, go facilitate: Use our READY framework so people emotionally commit to your meetings/workshops. Lead and drive outcomes that everyone buys into and that actually happen.
- Storytelling with DRAMA: Our DRAMA framework shows you how to create stories for every occasion. You’ll tell stories in an engaging way, getting stakeholders to buy-in to your deliverables and suggestions.
- Drive the right outcomes with outbound comms: We give the full lowdown on our RRR-SSS presentation and ABC writing frameworks. Use your comms skills to get the outcomes you want with stakeholders at all levels.
- Putting it all together: You’ll need to put your new skills into practice over time. We’ll show you how to embed them into day-to-day behaviours so they become second nature.
Why we’ve written the book
We’ve been doing training and working with teams for almost 20 years, and have created a number of frameworks and best practices (more about Team Sterka).
Team members across almost every business are lacking in leadership, emotional intelligence and resilience. This is having a material impact on team success (and therefore business success).
We’ve seen first-hand the impact our programmes have on teams, so we know we’re onto something really amazing. And we want to spread our knowledge as far as we can.
