In this episode of Hiring to Firing, hosts Tracey Diamond and Emily Schifter explore the dynamics of teamwork, using the beloved characters Sully and Mike Wazowski from Monsters, Inc. as prime examples. Joined by Emily Golden, founder and CEO of Golden Resources, they delve into the characteristics of effective teams, including the importance of clear communication, shared goals, and emotional intelligence. They also discuss strategies to foster effective teamwork among employees. Tune in for an engaging discussion on building strong, collaborative teams and the lessons we can learn from our favorite animated monsters.
