We all want that engaged, productive feeling when we go to work, yet so many of us are sometimes disengaged from what we’re doing. How can we create a better dynamic with coworkers as well as establish teams that truly thrive?

As the CEO of the Gabriel Institute, Dr. Janice Presser has studied Teamability® — team interaction in clinical, academic, and business settings — for more than 40 years. She came up with technology methods to enhance collaborative cultures and make meaningful work and organizational health a top priority. She is the author of six books; her latest is Dr. Janice: Thoughts and Tweets On Leadership, Teamwork And Teamability. She sheds insight into group dynamics and inspires us to more mindfully lead and serve.

Key takeaways:

• Reframe your concept of teamwork to view it as a living being.
• Recognizing strengths and weaknesses in team members as opportunities for  advancement and better synergy.
• Understanding team member roles.
• Making leadership a team sport.
• Motivating team members to pitch in—even on tasks they don’t enjoy.
• Leveraging your own aptitudes to create better teams.
