Are you leading a team and wondering why some members feel harder to work with than others? Or why your team just isn’t clicking no matter what you try? What if there was a way to make teamwork easier, smoother, and more productive without trying to change anyone?
I’m Robbin Kent, and welcome to Teamwork Made Easier. I’m a mom of two, wife of one, Enneagram 7, and Team Development Coach. I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling and a Master’s Degree in Organizational Psychology, and I’ve been applying these strategies in real workplaces for decades. Building teams that work better together is just part of who I am.
On this podcast, I help you develop teams people actually want to be part of, grow strong leaders who bring out the best in their people, and create healthy team cultures where everyone feels seen, valued, and supported.
We’ll explore how people are wired, how to leverage strengths, navigate frustrations, and collaborate more effectively so your team can get more done and actually enjoy doing it. I share practical tips, tools, and team-building activities you can use right away... all with energy, encouragement, and a little fun along the way.
After decades as an educator, counselor, and leader, I’ve been on teams that drained every bit of energy out of me. Micromanagement was the norm, communication was unclear, collaboration felt forced, and trust was missing. What I learned is that real progress comes from understanding how people work, leading by example, helping everyone use their gifts, and creating clarity so the team can thrive in the workplace.
Strong team cultures are built when leaders communicate clearly, recognize the strengths and emotions of others, and lead with emotional intelligence. When people feel seen and valued, teamwork and the team culture change. That is exactly what we’ll explore on this podcast.
We’ll tackle questions like:
- Why does some teamwork feel so hard?
- How do I work with team members who seem “difficult” or "complicated"?
- Can I improve communication and collaboration on my team in the workplace?
- How do I leverage everyone’s strengths so we thrive together?
- Can I lead with emotional intelligence and model the way?
- How do I create a team culture where people feel seen, heard, and valued?
- How do I help my team love what they do and who they work with?
If these questions sound familiar, this podcast is for you. Imagine walking into my cozy classroom, ready to learn, laugh a little, reflect, and walk away with practical ways to make teamwork easier and more effective.
Grab your favorite cup of coffee, pull up a chair, and let’s sit side by side, my friend, as we get your team clicking, communicating, and working together the way it was meant to be.
