best team

The best team that I ever worked with was in the very early years of my career.

 

What made the team experience memorable:

 

  1. Learning together: All of us in the team were constantly learning from and with each other. We would stay back on some days just to ideate and discuss.
  1. There was high psychological safety ( a term I only learnt much later). But in general, there was a feeling of being supported, knowing if I needed help someone would step up.
  1. Work felt like flow: The work was engrossing. There was a purpose and drive and a feeling that we and our work mattered
  1. A secure leader: A very secure leader who gave us all the space to try new things and fail. there was a feeling of being valued and appreciated.
  1. Camaraderie: The atmosphere even in the midst of a crisis was would jovial. We would not waste a moment to pull each other’s leg.

 

 

The experience of working with this team had a huge impact on who I eventually became as a professional and as a leader. And most of us from that team have continued to be lifelong friends.
