Abstract:
Strategically and tactically, organizational leaders often establish teams to accomplish the missions, visions, goals and objectives of their respective organizations. Teams exist in all types of organizations including financial institutions, factories, healthcare organizations, and educational institutions. Yet executives often struggle to maintain high performance of their own leadership teams. This research seeks to answer several questions, including: (1) What are the characteristics of a high performance executive team? (2) What problems do executive teams face that negatively impact their potential for high performance? And (3) What can executives do to increase their respective teams’ potential for high performance?
