Most leadership teams were never designed — they formed. And the type of team they became is rarely the type their organisation needs. Drawing on Wageman and Hackman’s research across 120 senior teams, this post explains the four types of leadership team, how to identify which one you have, and what it takes to move to the level your organisation requires.

What should a leadership team actually be responsible for? The answer that matters most is this: only what only it can do. This post examines how to draw a clear boundary between individual and collective responsibility — and why most leadership teams have never had that conversation explicitly.

High‑performing leadership teams are closely associated with stronger organisational performance. Organisations whose top executive team is aligned and working effectively together are significantly more likely to achieve above‑median results.
