We are all complex and challenging individuals with our own personalities, ambitions, goals objectives and agendas. In a team environment we become even more complex and challenging.

How do successful teams come together quickly and gel into an extremely productive focused unit that operates as one and produces effective results? Is it just co-incidence or can it be systematically reproduced?
