The question is how to lead a thriving team… but not just any team. We don’t want mediocre teams, but rather thriving teams where people feel like both they personally, and the team as a unit are thriving.

In this week’s episode of The Manager Track podcast, I am joined by Kirsten Moorefield, who has spent countless hours with hundreds of teams from startups to Fortune 100 companies, observing a clear pattern between the happiest and most effective people.

Kirsten Moorefield is the Co-founder and COO of Cloverleaf.me. With over a million users, the SAAS platform provides a range of personality behavioral type assessments, and automated team coaching to empower teams to do their best work together.

I have been a user and partner of the platform for several years. I offer it to all of my clients because I see just how powerful this tool can be and how much it amplifies the work that I do in terms of coaching, training, and team development incentives.
