Description:
Sarah Robb O’Hagan has a strong track-record of implementing game-changing innovation and growth strategies, which is why she knows that the only way to bring out the best in ourselves is to bring out the best in others. With her decades-long career, predominantly in the sports and human performance industry, she has seen up close what epic teamwork looks like and how the common characteristics of great teams translate seamlessly from the world of sports to business. With anecdotes from her days working for highly team-oriented corporate cultures (including Nike and Virgin), as well as insight into the strategies she used while transforming major global companies, she describes what it means to build and contribute to an “extreme team,” how to work through intergenerational workforce dynamics, and how to get proximate with those least like yourself to truly understand the unique gifts that individuals can contribute to your team.

- Why we naturally see our own efforts improve when we surround ourselves with “worthy rivals”
- How to build a team dynamic that eliminates imposter syndrome in individuals, to accelerate output and performance
- How to understand the difference between a team, and a community — and the importance of both in creating cultures that people want to be a part of
