Why Team Cohesion Relies (Also) on Leadership
In today’s fast-moving business landscape, agility and collaboration are no longer optional — they are critical drivers of commercial and organizational performance. And at the heart of any cohesive team lies one powerful factor: leadership.
A great leader does more than set targets. They inspire, structure, and most importantly, unite. In moments of growth, transformation, or hybrid work, the ability to build a harmonious team environment often determines whether a team thrives or stalls.
