characteristics of high-
performing teams. These
characteristics are about
relationships and culture,
rather than just the task at
hand.”

Robert R. Blake and Jane Mouton outlined in their Managerial Grid model (1964) that a
leader’s concern for task is set against their concern for people. These concerns are often
displayed as polar opposites as set out below.

• It’s the communication patterns—more than the
message—that make the difference.

achievement
1. Everyone in high-performing teams contributes
equally in their casual interactions. One or two
team members don’t monopolize conversations.
2. Meaningful conversations occur in face-to-face
encounters with vibrance and energy.
3. Team members communicate with one another

4. They engage in more one-on-one conversations
with each other, than usual.
5. Team members are willing to network beyond the
team and bring back what they’ve learned to the
team for the its benefit.

The three key elements
• energy is defined as the
frequency & value of
conversations between team
members.
• engagement Engagement is the
distribution of energy amongst
team members.
• exploration involves
communication patterns beyond
the team environment
