Dave Kesby is an organizational coach and author of the book "Extra-Dependent Teams: Realising the Power of Similarity", in which he challenges much of the conventional wisdom of teams.

As he writes in his introduction, "through the lens of convention a lot of the features of Extra-Dependent Teams are misdiagnosed as faults: working apart is seen as working in silos, lack of interdependency is seen as uncollaborative, and working only towards their individual goal is seen as not being a team player."

Dave served in The British Army for seven years before turning to a career in organizational and leadership development. He combines military, academic, corporate and volunteering experiences to provide a fresh and challenging perspective on what it means to lead, as well as be part of a team.
