Nearly every successful venture has a great group at its core. Individual talent is not enough – to achieve extraordinary results, we need to make our groups better.

In THE COLLECTIVE EDGE, Dr Colin Fisher, a foremost expert on team performance, distils decades of research into practical strategies to help groups function at their highest levels. Drawing on case studies from billion-dollar companies, elite sports teams and record-breaking artists, he reveals how to:
  • Design teams with the right structure and goals
  • Harness the motivating elements of competition
  • Manage conflict while encouraging productive disagreement
  • Create the conditions for cooperation, creativity and synergy
  • Build a culture of shared leadership and learning

The highest-performing teams are more than the sum of their parts. Whether you’re a leader, a team member, or simply curious about group dynamics, The Collective Edge provides vital wisdom that will help your groups unlock their true potential.
