​During my time at Red Bull, I had the privilege of being part of a high-energy, fast-paced environment where collaboration wasn’t just encouraged, it was essential. Those days laid the foundation for one of the most important lessons I’ve carried throughout my career, which is the power of teamwork.

In today’s ever-evolving business landscape, where agility and innovation are key to staying ahead, the ability to build and foster effective teams is more crucial than ever. That’s why I wanted to take a moment to reflect on a principle that has guided me time and again:

“A team should be greater than the sum of its individual parts.”

This idea resonates deeply with me because I’ve seen it in action. Success in any organisation isn’t about assembling a group of top performers and hoping they shine individually. It’s about building a unit where strengths complement weaknesses.

This experience shaped how I now approach recruitment and team building. When we help organisations find talent, we’re not just matching a CV to a job description. We’re helping to craft teams that work. That means thinking beyond individual capabilities and looking at how someone will integrate, elevate, and contribute to the broader group dynamic.

In recruitment, we often talk about finding the “perfect candidate.” But more often, the real win comes from finding the right fit for the team. That’s where long-term success is born.
