Team, Or Not?

One of the most effective ways to leverage your effectiveness is to learn how to effectively work with and led your team.  Simple advice - make clear the team goals and vision, and reinforce it every day.  Insure the tools your team needs are readily available, and move non-contributing members off the team as rapidly as possible.  Listen, be involved and available, and make team members a part of the process.  Share the rewards and credit liberally.  Most important - be sure YOU aren’t the problem the team isn’t functioning effectively.  If you’re not leveraging the power of TEAM, you have effectively made the decision to limit your effectiveness!
