Creating Great Teams – How Self-Selection Lets People Excel

About this video

Here’s a radical idea: trust people to know best and let them decide which team they should work in. Let them self-select!

Self-selection is the simplest, fastest and most efficient way to form stable teams, based on the belief that people are at their happiest and most productive if they can choose what they work on and who they work with.

This keynote shares the learning and experiences from more than two years of running self-selection processes in large organisations. It shows you a repeatable process for how to establish efficient teams in growing organizations and answers questions such as, “Why would I do that?” and, “How can I convince management?”
