    Putting the ‘I’ Back in Team

    Teams are made up of individuals, and it’s about time everyone stops ignoring that fact. Kelly will explain how focusing on individuals will garner better results. As an athlete in an individual sport, she relied heavily on the ‘team’ of individuals around her. Now, working as a broadcaster, Kelly sees the same set of parameters with an individualized performance element, that still relies heavily on the team supporting it.
