The Culture Code by Daniel Coyle talks about the inner workings of exceptional teams. What do you need to create a well functioning team? What roles does trust play? It also shows how the ways some of the most successful companies in the world create culture. I read it in 2 days as I found it to be so captivating. Here are three learnings from the book:

1. Belonging: Cultivating a sense of belonging is crucial for creating a strong team culture. When individuals feel connected and valued, they are more likely to collaborate, innovate, and go the extra mile. Foster an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity and encourages open communication.

2. Psychological Safety: Psychological safety is the bedrock of effective teamwork. You want a culture that allows to be comfortable with sharing ideas, asking questions, and taking risks. This leads to a culture of learning, growth, and resilience.

3. Vulnerabilty: A crucial part of a thriving team culture is vulnerability. But there is none of that if there is no trust. It also means you can be your true self.

Go, get this book for better teams. It is worth it. This is one of those books that will give each reader something to remember. And try out one of the mentioned methods in an upcoming team meeting or workshop.
