"High-performing teams" — What It Really Means

BS Level:💩💩💩💩💩

"High-performing teams"

What they really mean

Normal coworkers, but I need them to sound like Navy SEALs

"The best outcomes happen when high-performing teams align around a shared mission and move with urgency."

"A few competent adults did their jobs on time and now I'm talking about them like they're an elite special unit."

We made an app for something that already works fine
