Superteam: How to Sync Your Team for Outsized Success. Organizations today are facing increasing pressure to build high-performing teams, yet studies show that many are falling short. One major factor that contributes to this struggle is a lack of chemistry and shared mindset among team members, which can account for up to 46% of a team's unexplained success. However, there is a solution to this problem: synchrony.

Synchrony is a powerful form of embodied and extended cognition that can take team dynamics to a whole new level.

This leads to increased performance, agility, and a healthier work environment with less stress, greater productivity, and less burnout.
