Superteams examines the behaviors and working conditions that distinguish high-performing teams from ordinary groups. Drawing on research involving thousands of teams, psychologist Ron Friedman identifies patterns related to attention, energy management, communication, trust, decision-making, recovery, and continuous improvement. The book challenges common assumptions that stronger teams simply collaborate more frequently or work longer hours, instead emphasizing practices that protect focus and enable individuals to contribute effectively. Examples from business, sports, entertainment, science, and other collaborative environments illustrate how successful groups structure meetings, strengthen peer accountability, manage workloads, and improve collective judgment. Written for managers, team leaders, executives, and professionals working in collaborative settings, the book combines behavioral science with practical recommendations for improving team effectiveness, sustaining performance, and creating environments in which members can perform at a consistently high level
