Over 90% of teams are "dysfunctional" - failing to produce outcomes any better than individuals working on their own. Artificial intelligence (AI) has raised the bar on the skills expected of human workers. And enterprises are seeking to improve the skills of managers and the vast talent pools to which they are entrusted. Google, ServiceNow, Pfizer, IBM, and 100+ other companies rely on Teamraderie -- a collaboration of Harvard Business School and Stanford University faculty -- to apply peer-reviewed research to create higher-performing teams. Global Teamraderie programs have NPS scores of 80+ and are credited with elevating skills (esp. collaboration, creativity, communication), improving team outputs, and reducing attrition (esp. of engineers, scientists, and technical talent).
