Make winning inevitable With

Extreme teamwork


Individual talent has a performance ceiling—deeply connected teamwork doesn't. That's how talented people become a consistently unstoppable team through any goal, disruption, or challenge.

Our slightly-above-average team created a 17-year winning streak racing in unpredictable environments against teams of elite athletes. That’s how I know the best teamwork beats a team of the best.
WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH, THE WAY PEOPLE COMMUNICATED WITH EACH OTHER WAS DRAMATICALLY DIFFERENT. ROBYN CREATED A SHIFT THAT HAS LASTED OVER 20 YEARS.

- Sondra Barbour, Executive Vice President.

“Your message of total teamwork—synergy, commitment, empathy and mutual respect—is powerful. Your stories remind us that no matter what challenge we face, we can overcome it by working together.”

- Thomas J. Wilson, Chairman & CEO

“After implementing the 8 Essential Elements in your book with my sales team, we went from 17th in the nation to 1st!”

- Lorin Cooper

THE HIGH COST OF

DISCONNECTED TEAMS

The gap between a good team and
an unstoppable one isn’t talent. It’s the operating system.

Your people work hard, follow the plan and deliver. But when the game changes—technology, competition, a bigger target, a market shift—pushing harder in silos is exhausting and won’t compound success the way a collective effort does.

Most organizations are leaving performance on the table. Not because they lack talent, but because they’re running on average teamwork when conditions demand better. When Fast Company studied the world’s most consistently high-performing teams, three organizations had cracked the code: NASA, Industrial Light & Magic—and my record-breaking, World Champion adventure racing team. The common thread wasn’t talent. It was culture.

The Shift

The most connected team wins


My teammates and I discovered Extreme Teamwork makes winning inevitable in week-long nonstop expedition races across remote terrain where teams must cross every checkpoint together—or be disqualified.

Most teams treated that as a constraint. We saw it as an opportunity: the more relentlessly we showed up for each other, the faster we moved. Collectively sharing our strengths and challenges wasn't a compensation tactic for not having the best athletes. It was our competitive advantage. As a San Diego firefighter for 23+ years and a member of the first all-female crew in the U.S., I know that anything less than deeply connected teamwork can cost more than trophies.

When the stakes are high, change keeps speeding up, and nothing is certain, you don't need more solo stars or coordination in silos. Emotionally intelligent teamwork creates collective stability when conditions are anything but.

We Thinkers will always beat me-thinkers to the finish line when the goals are huge, the stakes are high, and change is the only thing you can count on.
