Creating A Collaborative Team Of Problem Solvers - Interview with Tim Sanders

One of the things I love about my job as Director of Business Development at Vanderbloemen Search Group is that I get to host our Vanderbloemen Leadership Podcast where we interview thought-leaders on team building.

Most recently, I interviewed Tim Sanders, author of Love is the Killer App and Deal Storming. 

Here are some of the key takeaways I learned about team building and collaboration from talking with Tim: 

• Nice, smart people succeed.
• Your network is your greatest net worth.
• A problem well-defined is a problem half solved.
• Tenacious problem solvers are web spinners. They find people that know something about the challenge, convince them to team up, have a series of meetings, and work together to find a solution.
• A tenacious problem solver is ultimately a community builder.
• A team is a group of a diverse perspectives that come together around a shared objective. It’s not a factory line.
