Building Resilient Teams

Individual Resilience is Important—Team Resilience is Essential.

Your Guide to Building Resilient Teams.

McChrystal Group knows organizational resilience better than anyone, and while there is no perfect formula for resilience, our framework of stability, connection, and agility has been proven in the crucible of combat, on the frontline of crisis response, and from the boardrooms of leading Fortune 100 Companies. Conventional methods suggest organizations identify a few risks and harden their systems against these limited and known threats. However, prediction as a response to threats will consistently fail in a complex world defined by black swan events. Building resilient teams requires focus on the enablers of success—people, process, and technology—and ensures they respond to any challenge.
