There is significant evidence that innovation in teams actually comes from diversity of strengths rather than individual competencies, and that acknowledging each otherās strengths and communication styles helps to build environments that are psychologically safe. This has profound implications for developing ourselves as emotionally intelligent team members, managers and leaders who understand and can coach individuals and teams to play to their strengths, but also for us to understand where those strengths can become limitations and where we can get in our own way.
