We Are Loving Awareness.

Where our attention goes, teams grow.

Origin Story

CopperTeams was an idea living in the heart of Greg Nuk, our founder, since 2008 when he attended an ultra diverse Masters in Boston and Shanghai.

After building and selling two successful companies and experiencing the struggles and pain when team dynamics were off…

Greg went on a SLAM™ mission to help people Struggle Less and Achieve More, and the CopperTeams system was born.

Nerd out: Copper is an essential element to our existence. It’s also created in supernovas, not stars.  And it’s within you.  Heart 4.8 μg/g.  Brain  5.2 μg/g.
