Teamercise

The wisest leaders I know are supremely conscious of the fact that they are nothing without the TEAM.

Thus, those wise leaders constantly work to accelerate team growth and team performance.

How?

• They think and talk futuristically (wasting little attention on the past).
• They handle as many of the tough conversations as possible informally and privately.
• They stay focused on the things they can control.
• They make continuous improvement a daily habit, and expectation.
• They don't take, or make, things personal.
• They invest in the team generously (both in tangible and intangible means).
• They spend as little time/effort as possible in the deficit-model activities of judging, ranking, sorting, grading,.......

Exactly the reason that excellent leaders have such committed followership.
