This is a great piece of research from Google. The key elements pulled out are:
Listen more, talk less.
Praise generously.
Reframe negative feedback.
Pay attention.
For me, if you are a team leader or team member (and who isn't?) the one thing you can be, which will help across all these areas, is to be more curious: ask more questions and really listen. This will then enable you to praise more generously and reframe negative feedback.
Great companies are made up of great teams. It's one thing to hire a bunch of rock stars, but it's a completely different thing to get those stars to work together.
