Chemistry of High Performing Teams ? Interview with Les McKeown ...

You leave another meeting wanting to throttle one of your teammates. You know the one who pushes all the wrong buttons sending you into a tizzy, or at least pushing you to see red.

Consider this: that teammate could very well be a perfect fit for the team. That teammate who drives the team into gridlock, stopping progress on good projects could be exactly what is needed for success.

If only you could understand where she is coming from. If only you could have peace whenever she?s around.

Enter Les McKeown.

Les has done what great minds often do: take the complicated and distill it down to simplicity.

Les has identified four roles in his latest book ?The Synergist? that exist in every organization, business: Visionary, Operator, Processor, and Synergist.

In this first of three segments, Les explains each role and the chemistry potential between them. It will burrow into your mind. You?ll begin to understand that co-worker who drives you bonkers. Seriously. You?ll begin to see how to create a high performing team.

Enjoy this first of three interviews with Les McKeown.
