Welcome back to our ‘From the Vault’ series! I'm taking a short break from recording to fend off some growing burnout. In the meantime, I'm revisiting some of our favorite past episodes.

Whether you missed it the first time around or (like me) need to hear something a couple times for it to really sink in, we hope you enjoy this fantastic conversation with Mark Cruth.

Have you ever been on a team that just can’t seem to work well together? It, well, sucks. That’s why I was so excited to speak with Mark Cruth - Atlassian’s Modern Workplace Evangelist. He has been focused on practical ways to build more effective teams for almost his entire career. The tips and resources he shares are SO GOOD. I know you’ll reference them again and again.

Specifically, you’ll learn:

• The five concrete things that lead to more effective teams. 
• The three issues that can lead to team dysfunction, if left unaddressed.
• Two exercises managers can do tomorrow that will greatly improve team cohesion and effectiveness. 
• The aspect of hybrid work that most impacts a team’s ability to collaborate well.
