As we formulated a new team, we were drawing from half a dozen different organisations or more, bundling together different perspectives and backgrounds and points of view. We shared tons of learnings and knowledge from our own histories in order to craft this new operational platform to make it work. It was a team’s mutual aggregate set of understanding and shared learnings over their careers that made us all successful.
