A leader’s guide to supporting high-performing teams
Leading Off
Go, team, go Brought to you by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms
Welcome to the latest edition of Leading Off. We hope you find our insights useful. Let us know what you think at Alex_Panas@McKinsey.com and Axel_Karlsson@McKinsey.com.
—Alex and Axel
It’s a timeless truth that strong leadership teams are vital to overall business performance. But of course, team effectiveness is not only important at the top. At all levels of an organization, good teamwork can help improve productivity, resilience, decision-making, and innovation—all of which are required to successfully navigate shifting workplace norms and a fast-moving business environment. This week, we look at ways that leaders and their organizations can crack the code of building and supporting high-performing teams.
Leaders often depend on their experience and intuition as they seek to build great teams. But sometimes their hunches can be wrong, according to new research from McKinsey’s Aaron De Smet, Gemma D’Auria, Liesje Meijknecht, and Maitham Albaharna. Their findings help to debunk common myths about how teams operate at their best—such as the notion that top-notch teams are stacked with top talent. The authors note that a team full of “superstars” may underperform if those stars don’t mesh well with others. The research indicates that teams with above-average scores in four areas—trust, communication, innovative thinking, and decision-making—are more likely to be efficient and innovative and produce better results. “Although individual performance does matter, it’s not enough for each person to perform at their personal best,” the authors say. “The dynamics of how those individuals interact are equally (if not more) important—they make the difference between operating as an individual team and operating as a team of individuals.”
That’s the number of actions organizations can take to unleash the potential of their teams to power organizational transformations. McKinsey’s Arne Gast, Erik Mandersloot, Kai Grunewald, and Neil Pearse note that transforming large organizations requires a unit-by-unit strategy. They suggest that organizations identify their highest-value teams, activate those teams, lift leaders so they can support their teams, and scale this approach to all teams that create value. “Widening this scope means figuring out how to measure and spread the story of success so that enthusiasm grows for new ways of working,” the authors say.
That’s McKinsey’s Bryan Hancock on how gen AI can help improve middle managers’ jobs. Managers play a key role in organizational health by coaching and empowering their team members. But McKinsey’s Emily Field, Hancock’s coauthor of Power to the Middle: Why Managers Hold the Keys to the Future of Work, says that few have enough time to focus on the people part of their jobs. Enter gen AI, which can help give managers insights into their coaching abilities and prompt them to pay more attention to their team members at the right times. “You need managers to make sure people know that they matter,” Hancock says.
Tension can be a good thing, especially when it comes to building a thriving team culture. Daniel Coyle, author of The Culture Playbook: 60 Highly Effective Actions to Help Your Group Succeed, has studied an array of top-performing group cultures, including Pixar, the Navy SEAL Team Six, the NBA’s San Antonio Spurs, and even a gang of jewel thieves. He says that tension is common in strong cultures where team members embrace problem-solving. “In bad cultures, a problem comes up, and people kind of turn away from it, right?” Coyle says in an episode of Author Talks. “In good cultures, they get super interested and turn toward it. They will have vibrant arguments about which idea is best because those arguments are taking place in the bounds of safe connection. It’s a different kind of fun.”
It’s a common complaint that people are spending more time than ever in meetings, especially as technology has made it easier for far-flung teams to gather digitally. If more meetings are a must, can they be more productive? McKinsey’s Aaron De Smet, J. R. Maxwell, and coauthors suggest that leaders can improve collaborative interactions by categorizing them into three types—decision-making, creative solutions and coordination, and information sharing—and shifting their approach to each one. In decision-making meetings, for instance, leaders should clarify exactly which team members have a voice, a vote, and veto power. According to the authors’ research, it’s often helpful to involve more people in decision-making, but one individual should be the decider. “Don’t underestimate the difficulty of implementing this,” they say. “It often goes against our risk-averse instinct to ensure everyone is ‘happy’ with a decision, particularly our superiors and major stakeholders. Executing and sustaining this change takes real courage and leadership.”
Lead by strengthening teams.

Why Digital Transformations Are Like a Trip to Vegas
Why Digital Transformations Are Like a Trip to Vegas
Hi MD Abul,
I hope everyone is having a great start to the week. I’ve been out at the US office for a few weeks while Colorado has been going through a little cold spell. Although the state gets 300 sunny days per year, a few of those sunny days are pretty cold – as I write this note, it’s 19F or -7C outside and it’s about as high as it will get today. That doesn’t mean I was successful in convincing my two boys that they needed to wear a coat for school though – I’m not sure if this is a Colorado thing or a wider teenager stance, but unless there’s heavy snow or rain, the coat stays in the house. Oh to be that young and carefree again!
At the time of this email going out, I’ll be lucky enough to be meeting some friends and family in Las Vegas for a quick break. As I was thinking through topics for this week's email, I wondered if there was any way to link my vacation/holiday plans with some content. As is typical when you work at Third Stage, it’s a pretty good assumption that Eric has probably produced a video on the topic you’re thinking of, which led me to this weeks video link, where Eric talks through what Las Vegas taught him about Digital Transformations and ERP Implementations. Take a look and let me know if you’re in the process of taking a big gamble with your implementation!
Cheers,
Aaron Patterson

Innovation and growth. An organization’s ability to grow is linked to its ability to innovate, and companies that build new businesses and develop new offerings, processes, and business models are better able than those that don’t to capture opportunities to expand. According to new research from Senior Partner Marc de Jong and coauthors, nearly four in ten leaders cite their organizations’ capacity to innovate as the most important strategic factor for generating growth in the coming 12 months.

A guide to fulfilling your full career potential
Readers & Leaders
It’s not just you THIS QUARTER’S PAGE-TURNERS ON BUSINESS AND BEYOND
Brought to you by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms
Top of your college class? Check. Five years of mentorship and relevant experience on your resume? Check. Still stuck in an entry-level job while your male colleagues advance? You’re not alone.
That initial career setback—the phenomenon that impedes women’s progress on the career ladder when they miss their first promotion—is known as the “broken rung.” It hinders women from acquiring on-the-job skills, earning power, and future promotions. Indeed, while 48 percent of women begin their careers in entry-level positions, fewer than one in three make it to the C-suite.
In this edition of Readers & Leaders, McKinsey Senior Partners Kweilin Ellingrud, Lareina Yee, and María del Mar Martínez share highlights from their upcoming book, The Broken Rung: When the Career Ladder Breaks for Women—and How They Can Succeed in Spite of It (Harvard Business Review). The book outlines the professional challenges that women face in their career journeys and what they can do to overcome them. Read on to learn more about the broken rung and how women can find success in moving up the corporate ladder.
Look out for our next edition of Readers & Leaders—now a quarterly newsletter—in spring 2025.IT BEARS REPEATING

24 Good Resources to Learn Software Architecture in 2025
The resources can be divided into different types such as:
Software Design Books
Some books that can help are DDIA, System Design Volume 1 & 2, Clean Architecture, Domain-Driven Design, and Software Architecture: the Hard PartsTech Blogs and Newsletters
Read technical blogs by companies like Netflix, Uber, Meta, and Airbnb. Also, the ByteByteGo newsletter provides insights into software design every week.YouTube Channels and Architectural Resources
YouTube channels like MIT Distributed Systems, Goto Conferences, and ByteByteGo can help with software architecture and system design. Azure Architecture Center and AWS Architecture Blog are other important resources.WhitePapers
For deeper insights, read whitepapers like Facebook Memcache Scaling, Cassandra, Amazon DynamoDB, Kafka, and Google File System.Software Career Books
A Software Architect also needs to develop holistic skills. Books about software career aspects such as Pragmatic Programmer, The Software Architect Elevator, The Software Engineer's Guidebook, and Philosophy of Software Design can help.
Over to you: Which other resources will you add to the list?
SOAP vs REST vs GraphQL vs RPC
The diagram below illustrates the API timeline and API styles comparison.
Over time, different API architectural styles are released. Each of them has its own patterns of standardizing data exchange.
You can check out the use cases of each style in the diagram.SQS vs SNS vs EventBridge vs Kinesis
AWS SQS: It is a fully managed message queuing service that helps decouple communication between distributed components.
AWS SNS: A fully managed publish/subscribe messaging service using topics to send messages to multiple subscribers or endpoints (such as email, Lambda, SQS, and so on).
AWS EventBridge: It is a serverless event bus that facilitates the routing of events between AWS services, and applications based on specific routing rules and filters.
AWS Kinesis Data Streams: A real-time data streaming service that captures, processes, and analyzes data in near real-time.
How can you choose which service to use?
Here are some basic tips and examples:
For massive amounts of events like a clickstream from an application use Kinesis Data Stream
For events processed by a single consumer like an image processing job, SQS is a better choice.
For sending messages and notifications, SNS is a great choice.
For system events such as a new user registration that multiple services must receive and react to, use EventBridge.
Over to you: Have you used SQS, SNS, EventBridge, or Kinesis?
Top 5 common ways to improve API performance
Result Pagination:
This method is used to optimize large result sets by streaming them back to the client, enhancing service responsiveness and user experience.
Asynchronous Logging:
This approach involves sending logs to a lock-free buffer and returning immediately, rather than dealing with the disk on every call. Logs are periodically flushed to the disk, significantly reducing I/O overhead.
Data Caching:
Frequently accessed data can be stored in a cache to speed up retrieval. Clients check the cache before querying the database, with data storage solutions like Redis offering faster access due to in-memory storage.
Payload Compression:
To reduce data transmission time, requests and responses can be compressed (e.g., using gzip), making the upload and download processes quicker.
Connection Pooling:
This technique involves using a pool of open connections to manage database interaction, which reduces the overhead associated with opening and closing connections each time data needs to be loaded. The pool manages the lifecycle of connections for efficient resource use.
Over to you: What other ways do you use to improve API performance?xAI’s Grok-3 One-Pager
Grok 3 was unveiled on February 17. According to Elon Musk, it is “the smartest AI on Earth.”
But what makes it so powerful?
Grok 3 has been trained on the Colossus supercomputer with 100K Nvidia H100 GPUs. According to one stat, it has been trained for 200 million GPU hours. The key capabilities of Grok 3 are coding, science research, problem-solving, creating marketing campaigns, personalized assistance, and API integration.
Some special features of Grok 3 are:DeepSearch: Allows Grok to search the web and X posts for real-time data and information.
Think Mode: Decompose complex queries into steps just like human problem-solving.
Big Brain Mode: A heavy-duty mode for intensive tasks like simulations, data analysis, or reasoning.
Here’s how Grok 3 possibly works:
Grok 3 supports multi-modal inputs. The user can ask questions as text, upload images, or talk to Grok. The inputs are tokenized to initiate processing.
Synthetic data training enhances the query interpretation.
This is fed to the core transformer model that analyzes the input.
The core transformer issues a search directive to DeepSearch to retrieve necessary information from the web or real-time X data.
Next, a self-correct process ensures accuracy through an internal feedback loop.
Depending on the user’s input, the Think Mode or Big Brain Mode refines the responses as required. It might again use DeepSearch to find more information.
The answers are delivered to the user in a multimodal manner.
Note that these details are based on piecing together information from xAI blogs about Grok and new feature announcements. More details may be revealed in the coming days.

A new operating model. As rapid technological developments and other disruptions are changing the nature of day-to-day work, people management is also ready for a vital shift, say McKinsey Partners Asmus Komm and Sandra Durth and their coauthors. Companies’ increasing investments in gen AI and other technologies mean they could soon deliver personalized employee experiences, redefine work as a symbiotic relationship between human and machine, and continuously measure their organizational health and performance.

A little surprise… If you’ve ever felt called to something bigger, this is for you…OK, I just got back from Vegas, and that was the most amazing FHL ever!
Like, I knew it was going to be memorable, but I had no idea just how incredible the whole week would be!
So many ‘a-ha’ breakthrough moments… so many amazing marketing tactics… and SOOOO many emotions!!
Ah, it was amazing. I can't stop thinking about it and yet I’m trying to relax (...and for someone like me, that can be tough! ;)
Now, if you missed FHL 10… the last dance… I have some ways for you to hear all the presentations - coming out soon, so keep an eye on your email inbox. ;)
But, before that hits your inbox…

Here’s just a quick sneak peek:

The hero’s journey every entrepreneur must take if you TRULY want to step into your purpose and change the world!
- Why fear always shows up before a breakthrough… and how to transform that fear into a steely-eyed determination that’ll get you what you WANT!
The little-known (and perhaps backward way) to discover YOUR definite purpose and pursue it with INTENSE, obsessive conviction!
-
Marketing “Sherpa”?? Why THIS type of “guide” can change everything for your business… and how to locate YOUR specific ‘mentor.’
- What it really means to “serve” - and how you can tell WITHIN YOU that you’re exactly where you need to be… surrounded by YOUR people you’re meant to serve.
- AND SO MUCH MORE!! Including how to destroy the dreaded "Entrepreneur Hesitation” that plagues almost every entrepreneur or marketer who’s about to make some MAJOR strides in their business!
