Think about the stories that captivate you. Survival in the harshest places on earth. Courage in the face of death. Invention that changed the world. What do these stories have in common? The work of teams. Teamistry is a podcast that examines the chemistry that exists between people who team up to pull off what no one could ever do alone. It launches March 16.
People do amazing things, like surviving in the wastelands of Antarctica or walking in space or containing a nuclear meltdown.
And what do they have in common?
They're not in it alone.
If you look back throughout history, creativity, talent, genius, it's all a team sport.
I'm Gabriella cowperweight.
I'm a documentary and feature filmmaker and the host of Teamstreet.
It's a new original podcast from Atlassian, all about what happens when people bring their unique skills together, go in a new direction, and end up doing something they could never do alone.
Each episode, you'll hear about the teams behind the front page stories you thought you knew.
Like the astronomers who managed to photograph a black hole for the first time.
We have seen what we thought was unseeable.
The engineers and designers who built one of the most important cars ever, everybody.
Knew they were working on a breakthrough car, something really different.
It was a step in a direction that nobody had taken before.
And the true story behind Thomas Edison's electric light system.
One of our myths of 19th century invention is that they're all these lone inventors working out their ideas.
But truthfully, I believe his greatest invention was this idea that let's get some of the best and brightest together.
Let's get them from diverse sources to work on various different projects.
This is teamistry, all about the chemistry of teams and what happens when people are so open to new ideas, of working, innovating, and expressing themselves together.
They end up doing something amazing.
Amazing.
