Episode 24: Wonky thinking & misfits

Building a team around you that is inclusive and diverse means you have more opportunity for unexpected positive outcomes.  Kate & Max talk about the importance of making good connections, intentionally looking for difference and watching out for bias and group-think.  How might we inadvertently limit what’s possible, or accidentally exclude people we should really want to have on board? What twists are in your thinking that might not help you? Knowing what you need to watch out for means you have much more confidence that you can create a great team environment that everyone wants to be a part of. Find out more about how to build diverse and inclusive teams at theaccidentalmanager .  That's where you'll find the 5-minute noodles Perceptual Positions, Capability in Teams, Delegating Decisions, 6 hats, Twisted Thinking and Perceived Weirdness - all of which help you to build a team that is broad in experience, contribution and capability.  The book we mention in this episode is Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast & Slow.
