ABOUT GRAEME HARVEY
The strength of the team is in every single individual. I cannot drive the car. I am not able to design an aerodynamic surface. But I try to understand everything around the [person] who can. I try to provide a framework for these individuals to perform at their best.\"- Toto WolffAs a self-admitted Formula 1 fan, it\'s only fitting that the best summary of my leadership style comes from the Team Principal for the Mercedes-AMG F1 Team.(For those unaware; one of the most decorated Formula 1 teams in recent history, under Toto\'s leadership.)I also believe that teams with the best culture have mastered openness and transparency while reducing noise and ambiguity. Collaboration only works well when the facts (the good, the bad and the ugly) are out in the open. As a leader, it\'s my job to ensure my team has all the context to understand the strategy - the WHY - behind what we\'re doing.I\'ve shared an analogy with others that often gets a laugh for it\'s imagery but nonetheless I still find effective. A good leader is essentially a sponge that absorbs ambiguity and emanates clarity and decisiveness.
