Your guide to higher-performance

Despite working together in human societies for millennia, why is it still so bloody hard to move together in the same direction? 


In Teams that Swear, Adrian Baillargeon breaks down the art and science of maximising the potential of teams.  Teams that Swear provides shares: 


  • How swearing can be a good thing for teams
  • The latest research into what makes higher-performing teams
  • How to create those higher-performing teams by focussing on just two things 
  • Insights into four types of teams and what you can do to avoid sinking, spinning and self-serving teams - and create one that shines.


Laid out in a way that allows leaders to self-diagnose their teams, readers will also be entertained and educated with real-life examples, including:   


  • How a $10 note helped reinforce the right behaviours across an entire department 
  • Why a lack of clear objectives resulted in thousands of fake breathalyser tests
  • How sharing objectives helped one of Australia's favourite sporting team field a healthier team 
  • What three words saved a team from sinking


Ideal for current and aspiring managers, or team members who want to make a difference, Teams that Swear can help create teams that swear by each other - and not about each other.

“Teams That Swear provides an excellent summary of the research into the building of — as Adrian says — teams that shine.   


It also provides wonderful examples, drawn from Adrian’s long experience across Canada and Australia that bring the key elements of great teams to life.   


The simplicity of Adrian’s Higher Performing Teams Model provides a strong framework. However, it is the simple, practical activities that will help leaders and teams from all works of life play with what is one of life’s great joys – being in a team that swears by each other.”
