In two case studies, the virtuoso teams of Sid Caesar and Miles Davis have common themes, such as generating creativity, focusing on trust, and strong time pressures.

Creativity enables virtuous teams to solve problems and exploit opportunities through the integration of divergent thoughts and perspectives. Common Themes of Virtuous Teams In almost every area of ​​business, sports, and politics, you will find teams that produce exceptional and innovative results. Sid Caesar's virtuoso team managed to achieve the unthinkable by remaining at the top of the comedy entertainment industry for nine years, where television is known for the unpredictability of its audience (Boynton & Fischer, 2005). Caesar led the team rather than micromanaging it, he cultivated an environment to generate creativity. The extent to which Caesar effectively influences others and fulfills his role shows genuine concern and acts that have improved his trustworthiness towards his team. Unlike traditional teams which are typically made up of whoever is available, regardless of their talent; virtuoso teams are made up of top artists carefully selected to play specific roles. Some teams produce the best results when forced together and under strict deadlines. Virtuous teams embrace challenges and accept the risk of exposure and career damage if the project fails.
