Does Your Team Have Life?

“It takes every member of a team to give a team it’s life.”

When you are in a leadership role, it’s your job to assess whether every member on your team is contributing at the expected level.

If a team isn’t performing, there’s a member holding back.

The ways one holds back are many.

Not giving a full effort.

Taking a shortcut on procedures.

Looking away at quality flaws.

Withholding vital information or ideas.

Teams that don’t have life lose. They die eventually because no one wants to persist on a losing team.

Leaders have to find the players withholding life and cause a difference.
