Teaming

In her TED talk, Amy Edmondson talks about teaming. This is the focused convergence of diverse talent around a complex opportunity. The group doesn't necessarily have the luxury of shared experience or established divisions of power. And yet they do amazing things. Because they engage each other in relentless humility, curiosity and generosity. Implying we need more teaming than teams.

The power of generosity

In Buddhist psychology, now supported in the neurosciences, it's a basic tenet that at the root of human suffering is being self-serving instead of generous. Generosity creates meaning instead of suffering. It is now clear that there is more life meaning in being a contributor than consumer. The most thriving organizations get this and make contribution most possible.
