What makes teamwork really work? #TeamHabits
Hello Reader,
This week, my friend Charlie Gilkey is launching a new book, Team Habits: How Small Actions Lead to Extraordinary Results.
I was a big fan of his first book, Start Finishing: How to Go from Idea to Done. (See my video review here.) Charlie has once again proven his ability to navigate the complex world of productivity, but this time he's focusing on teamwork and collaboration, offering insights that are both profound and practical.
Team Habits is not just another book about teamwork; it's a guide to understanding the hidden dynamics that make teams thrive. From power dynamics to personal relationships, from embracing the hybrid future of work to navigating trends like the "quiet quitting" phenomenon, this book covers it all.
Like my own book, Marketing Yourself: How to Elevate your Personal Platform to the Next Level , the book offers a choose-your-own-adventure style of reading. You can identify which of the eight categories of Team Habits are causing the most issues, based on the Team Habits Assessment, and skip right to the chapters that matter most to you:
- Belonging
- Decision-making
- Goal-setting and prioritization
- Planning
- Communication
- Collaboration
- Meetings
- Core Team Habits
If you've ever felt that your team could be more productive, more cohesive, and more aligned with your organization's goals, this book is sure to be a valuable read.
🚀 Transform your team's dynamics with #TeamHabits
This book focuses on the 4-10 closest professional relationships you have. Even as a solopreneur, I've found the frameworks and advice to be universally applicable to how I interact with clients, with my virtual assistants, and with my professional colleagues.
Team Habits will help you foster a sense of belonging within your team, enhance communication and collaboration, and shift the focus from personal productivity to systemic team dynamics.
What I like about this book is how the advice works for any member of a team. Whether you're a team leader, a team member, or an organization looking to transform the way you work, Team Habits offers actionable insights and practical tools to make teamwork work.

“Modern work demands knowledge transfer: the ability to apply knowledge to new situations and different domains.” - David Epstein Hello Reader, In his book Range, author David Epstein makes the case that shallow and wide generalists have become more powerful than narrow, deep specialists. Having access to a wide variety of different bodies of knowledge gives the generalist the ability to make unexpected connections between vastly different ideas. In a study of Nobel Laureates, researchers...
🤖 “There will be two types of companies in the future: those who are leading with AI, and those who are irrelevant.” - Jeetu Patel, Cisco Hello Reader, There’s a growing difference between people who use AI and people who think with it. That’s the difference between overwhelm and opportunity. Between playing catch-up and setting the pace. The AI F.A.S.T. Class Series is built to bridge that gap. It’s not another theory-heavy course about “the future of work.” It’s a practical, hands-on...
🤖 “Artificial intelligence is not a substitute for human intelligence; it is a tool to amplify human creativity and ingenuity.” - Fei-Fei Li Hello Reader, One of the questions I've been getting about the AI F.A.S.T. Class Series is - what is the workshop like? Are we listening to you talk, or are we getting hands-on, and actually doing something? If you want to see a sample of my teaching style, watch this 1-hour recording of a recent interactive workshop I taught in New Zealand. Prompt Like...
