Hi everyone and welcome to this week's Squiggly Career podcast for Amazing If. I'm Sarah, one of the founders of Amazing If, and I'm joined by my fellow co-founder, Helen.

Hello everybody. Hi. And I know many of you would have listened before, but for any new listeners out there, this podcast is all about helping you to develop the skills you need to be successful in a squiggly career.

And this week, we're talking about teams, what makes a brilliant team, why team fails,

what you can do to be part of and to build a brilliant team. And I will warn you now,

I've realised as I started to think about this, this could get very sporty, very quickly.

I started to get really excited about,

usually it's you with all the kind of cheesy quotes.

But oh my God, when you get into team and sports,

there is a world of interesting quotes and stuff out there.

So I've got a couple that I've got to share,

just I think, to get out of my system.

Otherwise, I'm just going to interrupt you.

If anyone is listening and is as unsporty as I am, please be aware that I will provide the counter to Sarah's sporting references for this podcast episode.

Plus, it's really topical.

We're being topical.

Germany around the World Cup, hopefully by now.

Actually, everyone who listens to this, it will have been like enough time afterwards.

I was like, oh no, maybe I've just done a massive spoiler, but everyone will know that.

You know, when you just said it's topical, I was like, is it? Why?

And in that question is the root of our differences on sportingness.

So if you are into your sport, there is an amazing documentary series called All or Nothing.

Definitely watch it.
