4Motivated and committed teams are
the key to success.
Nothing great was ever achieved without
enthusiasm. Ralph Waldo Emerson
5Leaders set the stage.
- Leaders need to pace themselves before they pace
the team. - High achievers in all roles are more likely to
push themselves too far. - Leaders telegraph how the vision will be achieved
through their words and their actions. - Team members watch the leader to understand
acceptable behaviors. - Leaders unaware of their effect on teams risk
losing team engagement. - A leaders commitment to maintaining their own
optimal performance sets the stage for similar
team member behaviors.
