In a vibrant constructive environment, teams don't need to agree on everything; except on the ground rules of how to disagree

Lindsay Cox Shahady, SVP of Global Review Solutions and Data Analytics at Consilio LLC, captures perfectly what defines great managed document review teams — the combination of strategic thinking, continuous learning, and the agility to layer technology in ways that amplify human expertise, particularly in legal reviews for #litigation, #investigations, and #regulatorymatters. The Sedona Conference’s #TAR 1 Reference Model (March 2024) echoes this view, noting that even as #GenAI improves efficiency, its use “still follows the established steps of TAR 1,” underscoring the central role of process discipline, human judgment, and defensibility. True #innovation lies not in replacing the review team but in empowering it — leveraging analytics, TAR, and GenAI together to achieve precision, quality, and consistency at scale.

Lead with #layers - Anyone else had an ambiguous leader that drove them crazy? I know I have! And, it breeds misalignment and lack of accountability. Then again, maybe that was their goal? 😎💫 That's a story for a different day! But, did you know that... Before accountability, comes a few layers in The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team, and the order matters. ✅️Trust ✅️Conflict ✅️Commitment ✅️Accountability ✅️Results 💎 If you haven't seen the powerhouse assessment for this, let me know. I've seen a lot in the market, and this one is high-value, high-impact. #AuthorizedPartner #Assessments #Certifications #Workshops

This resonates deeply. In my work with teams, I see that ambiguity rarely appears out of thin air. It creeps in when trust is low and team members hesitate to challenge each other for clarity. True accountability is only possible when a team has the trust to engage in constructive conflict first, ensuring goals are not just stated, but are clear, agreed-upon, and bought into by all.

You want to make your team successful? A well-built team displays five solid behavioral building blocks: 1. Trust 2. Commitment 3. Accept conflict 4. Accountability 5. Attention to goals and results And: Open, respectful and honest communication!

What's the secret ingredient for a high-performing team? It might not be what you think! Common wisdom suggests that assembling a team of top performers is the surest path to success. But what if the data tells a different story? In this clip from our recent webinar, Anna Thompson of Google shares the number one factor that their internal research identified for team effectiveness.  Watch the video to find out more.

“The Value of Team Discussions” 💬 Some of the best ideas are born from debates, not silence. Working in diverse teams taught me that disagreement isn’t conflict — it’s collaboration. 🌍 Different perspectives sharpen your thinking and widen your lens.

What to do when a manager is not performing up to expectations, or is having trouble with leading the team. From this week's interview with Christie Cooper, Ph.D https://lnkd.in/g8bgQBcm

For me, success in leading global teams comes down to three fundamentals: 1. Surround yourself with outstanding leaders In a global organization, you can’t be everywhere at once. That’s why it’s crucial to have trusted leaders—people who bring expertise, vision, and the ability to inspire and empower their teams. Exceptional talent at every level drives our success and keeps us agile in a rapidly changing world. 2. Ensure clarity on priorities With teams spread across continents and time zones, alignment is essential. We dedicate time to communicating our priorities and maintaining consistent messaging. This way, everyone - no matter where they are - is moving in the same direction. Clear goals help our teams focus on what matters most for our customers and our business. 3. Get out of your office and connect in person Virtual tools make it easy to stay in touch, but nothing beats the impact of face-to-face interactions. Visiting teams, listening to their ideas, and understanding their challenges firsthand builds trust and strengthens relationships. These moments reveal the passion and dedication of our people, and often spark our best ideas. Leading a global team is both a challenge and a privilege. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with such talented colleagues and committed to fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.
