TERRITORIAL THINKING DESTroyS teams, destroyS productivity, destroys trust
Territorial thinking is the last thing we expect when we step into a leadership position. But many of us experience and must address it because it creates:
- Communication gaps that slow strategic execution.
- Silo mentalities.
- Destructive conflict and an inability to engage in healthy disagreement with one another.
- Fragmented, disjointed, de-energized teams.
- A lack of confidence that leaves us, as leaders, feeling foggy and unsure.
While we spend lots of time on current hot topics, such as engagement, diversity, retention, and AI, while important, we often fail to take time to practice the most critical of skills: working together.
Breaking down territorial thinking by learning and practicing how to work together is the overlooked solution to many of our organizational problems.
When we learn and practice working together, we create a culture of teamwork where people are:
- Re-energized, ready to tackle the bigger picture together.
- Aligned around a common goal while having fun as a team.
- Engaged and thinking more strategically.
- Experiencing a greater sense of pride in the brand and team.
- Fostering healthy disagreement and behaviors, producing better decisions, solutions, and morale.

“We were good but not great. We were a fragmented, disjointed team. We all liked each other and got along, at least on the surface, but there was a real lack of cohesion. Now we have a path forward and a framework for how to get where we want.”
