Team Chemistry: How to Use Interaction Styles to Move from Friction to Flow
Ever wonder why great project team members struggle to work together? In today’s increasingly diverse and distributed project environments, the way we interact - driven by cultural norms, individual styles, and invisible differences - can be the key to either dysfunction or dynamic success.
This session shows you how to understand common interaction styles and use them to transform friction into flow. You will learn to recognize these styles, bring together team members’ complementary strengths, and reduce conflict. You’ll leave equipped to foster healthier team dynamics and lead your team with greater versatility.
