This document summarizes five strategies for effective teamwork in high-stress situations, as outlined in the book "Into the Storm" by Dennis N. T. Perkins. The strategies are: 1) Putting team unity first, 2) Preparing thoroughly in advance and continuously, 3) Maintaining balanced optimism by clearly defining what constitutes success, 4) Reinforcing relentless learning through an open culture, and 5) Willingly taking calculated risks to assess capabilities. Accompanying each strategy is a "winning tactic" used by the amateur sailing crew that won the demanding Sydney to Hobart ocean race.
