What makes teamwork really work? #TeamHabits
Hello Reader,
This week, my friend Charlie Gilkey is launching a new book, Team Habits: How Small Actions Lead to Extraordinary Results.
I was a big fan of his first book, Start Finishing: How to Go from Idea to Done. (See my video review here.) Charlie has once again proven his ability to navigate the complex world of productivity, but this time he's focusing on teamwork and collaboration, offering insights that are both profound and practical.
Team Habits is not just another book about teamwork; it's a guide to understanding the hidden dynamics that make teams thrive. From power dynamics to personal relationships, from embracing the hybrid future of work to navigating trends like the "quiet quitting" phenomenon, this book covers it all.
Like my own book, Marketing Yourself: How to Elevate your Personal Platform to the Next Level , the book offers a choose-your-own-adventure style of reading. You can identify which of the eight categories of Team Habits are causing the most issues, based on the Team Habits Assessment, and skip right to the chapters that matter most to you:
- Belonging
- Decision-making
- Goal-setting and prioritization
- Planning
- Communication
- Collaboration
- Meetings
- Core Team Habits
If you've ever felt that your team could be more productive, more cohesive, and more aligned with your organization's goals, this book is sure to be a valuable read.
π Transform your team's dynamics with #TeamHabits
This book focuses on the 4-10 closest professional relationships you have. Even as a solopreneur, I've found the frameworks and advice to be universally applicable to how I interact with clients, with my virtual assistants, and with my professional colleagues.
Team Habits will help you foster a sense of belonging within your team, enhance communication and collaboration, and shift the focus from personal productivity to systemic team dynamics.
What I like about this book is how the advice works for any member of a team. Whether you're a team leader, a team member, or an organization looking to transform the way you work, Team Habits offers actionable insights and practical tools to make teamwork work.

Hello Reader, In 24 hours, I'll be going live with the Authorverse community to teach my newest workshop, '5 Business Models Behind Books.' Here are the 5 books I will be using to illustrate the 5 business models: (Yes, I am using my own book as an example. Teacher's prerogative. π) In working with so many experts and entrepreneurs over the past decade, I have been on the back-end of many businesses that rely on a published book as the cornerstone of their positioning. The 5 business models I...
Hello Reader, How do authors build a thriving business around their published work? Spoiler alert: it's not by selling more books. In my work over the past decade with authors, coaches, and speakers, I have been behind-the-scenes of multiple 6- and 7-figure businesses. I've seen how their businesses are structured, developed the commercial offers they make to their audience, and learned firsthand what's working, and what's a waste of time. Next week, I'm teaching a free workshop for the...
Hello Reader, In every story, there are three characters: the hero, the villain, and the victim. A century ago, American film was born out of the vaudeville scene. The main storytelling medium at the time was melodrama, when the characters were almost comically basic. Think of the mustachio-twirling villain, tying a damsel in distress to the train tracks, being thwarted by a gun-toting hero, and you have all the basics you need to tell a compelling story: setting, conflict, and characters....
