Carlos Valdes-Dapena says we’re doing teamwork wrong
Companies and organizations that think they have great teamwork may be deluding themselves, says Mr. Valdes-Dapena.
Traditional team building offers a quick fix, or distraction, from a team's real issues, he says.
“I have a particular focus on what does and does not work in the realm of teams and team building,” says Mr. Valdes-Dapena.
He built a better way while working in management for the candy maker Mars Inc. After 17 years there, he formed his own company, Corporate Collaboration Resources LLC, to take his techniques to other organizations.
