Terry's Blog | Daily strategies, insights and inspiration to help you achieve your potential

Teams

Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people. 

Team Leadership

The best leadership your team can have is a combination of your strengths with theirs.  You make up for one another's weaknesses. 

Accountability

Team members in high-performance teams are accountable to each other, not just the boss. 

Teams

Great teams have talent, leadership, attitude, and unity of purpose.  

Developing People

The more of a head start your organization gets in developing people individually and as teams, the more difficult it will be for competitors to ever catch up to you.

Teams

You don't select a team, you select a group of people and then work together to develop into a team.  Teams evolve.

Teams

Trust is the most fundamental element of a winning team.  If people think their teammates are lying, withholding information, or plotting against them, nothing valuable will be achieved.

Developing Teams

The same basic elements that work for individuals - well-designed practice activities, coaching, repetition, feedback, self regulation, building knowledge, and mental models all work for teams as well.  #teamdevelopment

Teams

Ask your teams to identify areas where greater autonomy would help them deliver a better customer experience or improve operations, and then carefully expand their decision-making prerogatives.   #teams   

#Teamwork

Research continually shows that group goals inspire people to work more quickly and for longer periods, pay more attention to the tasks that matter, become less distracted, and increase their overall efforts.
