Google Spent Years Studying Effective Teams. This Single Quality Contributed Most to Their Success
What matters isn't so much who's on your team, but rather how the team works together.
By Justin Bariso
The best companies are made up of great teams. You see, even a company full of A-players won't succeed if those individuals don't have the ability to work well together.
That's why not too long ago, Google set out on a quest to figure out what makes a team successful. They code-named the study Project Aristotle, a tribute to the philosopher's famous quote "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
To define "effectiveness," the team decided on assessment criteria that measured both qualitative and quantitative data. They analyzed dozens of teams and interviewed hundreds of executives, team leads and team members.

Of course BB knows this. But it's something to remember during free agency, and the draft. And something to remember when waiting to see how it will all shake out not in training camp, or September, or October, but November, December, January, and particularly February.
