Why I Wrote This Book
The Science & Soul of Team Transformation
I wrote this book because I’ve seen too many talented people merely surviving at work when they could be thriving. From looking directly into John McEnroe’s eyes on the courts of Wimbledon to leading complex corporate transformations, I’ve discovered how our brains, nervous systems, and hearts work together to co-create extraordinary teams. Through heart rate variability and conversational neurochemistry, I’ve learned that even the most intense personalities aren’t mean—they’re deeply passionate. This insight changed everything about how I approach challenging relationships and team dynamics.
The 6 Social Skills of GREAT Teaming™ aren’t nice-to-have skills. They’re a practical, human-centered system for how we work together when the stakes are high. They help us co-create psychological safety and turn individual expertise into collective intelligence. They give teams practical ways to navigate complexity with greater courage, connection, and joy. These deeply human skills matter more than ever in the age of Human-AI teaming.
