What does it take for executive teams to move forward in true alignment — focused, united, and working toward shared success?
In this episode, leadership expert Nicole Bendaly, Managing Partner at Boyden and head of our Canadian Leadership Consulting practice, introduces Habit 2: Building Team Cohesion, a defining characteristic of high-performing executive teams. She explores how clarity, shared priorities, and accountability to collective goals enable teams to perform at their best.
Nicole shares three essential questions every leadership team should ask to strengthen cohesion:
What does success look like for our team?
What are our top three to five priorities?
What behaviors and values will guide how we work together?
When teams align on these fundamentals, they channel their energy effectively, eliminate competing priorities, and achieve greater impact together.
