Striving for, and achieving, high performance in teams has become a major business imperative. Drawing on two years of ethnographic research with the Cambridge University Boat Club, this film examines the causes of team failure and success. The mix of differing personalities, skills, motivations, career aspirations, and leadership styles as well as the complexities of the task means that building and shaping high performance teams is fraught with difficulty.

  • that is so true (in my experience) - you have to find the fine balance...i am a manager in manufacturing and i have found when you have a group of strong technical performers mixed with a group of social performers the results are great...they do complement each other...but the balance is fine lol..too many jokers and it's shite....too many techs and you have a geek party.
