Investing in relationship building is invariably less costly and time-consuming than recovering from the divisiveness and conflict that may result from its absence. And that's where team norms come in. |

Creating a Great Team: Ready, Aim, Hire! Create a great test team by: assessing your team to see where you need which kinds of strengths, defining the job you need filled, asking great interview questions to weed out unsuitable candidates, and by matching their answers to your needs.
