A powerful shared vision is essential for effective teamwork. It?s critically important to recognize that your teams do not hit the starting line being of one mind or sharing a common sense of purpose. Anything you try to do in business (or in life) that involves working together with others will sooner or later require you to deal with five issues. Start your team off right by working them out up front before tackling anything else...
You will learn these 5 things:
DESIRED RESULTS
GUIDELINES
RESOURCES
ACCOUNTABILITY
CONSEQUENCES
Now lets get down to Business...
The two most important reasons for addressing these five issues from the start are: 1. Team members cannot interact efficiently with one another if they are not clear about where each person stands on these issues. 2. Team effectiveness is severely limited when you have to spend most of your time trying to repair, redefine, or resolve problems related to expectations and support of one another (a typical result of not dealing openly with the point mentioned above). Achievement is measured only in terms of what we actually do; not what we talk about doing. At the start of the day it's about possibilities, but at the end of the day it's only about results! Most people spend more time talking than doing; successful people ?talk? less, and ?do? more.
Whether you're working solo or as part of a team, a lifetime of personal and professional success can be had using this simple approach :THINK. "LEARN. DO. EVALUATE. SHARE".
We all want things from our lives and work. To be successful in achieving them, it isn't necessary that we want the same things. It is only necessary that we: 1. know what we each need, 2. share that information freely and honestly, 3. habitually discipline ourselves toward accomplishment, and 4. commit to helping one another learn, accept, and achieve whatever each person needs to take away from the experience in exchange for the effort contributed
- Shared vision? is your master key to team success. You'll often see management attempt to implement this within the organization by developing a vision statement, publishing and communicating it to employees, then seeking to help employees collectively ?see? the path to be followed. Eventually, they will start to wonder why nothing has changed. And, they will have completely missed the point about what it means to ?share? a vision. Don't let that happen to you.
- Success-to-go for people working @ the speed of life!Trust,belive in what your doing and your people will have all the trust in you and the vision will be complete... Takes hard work but the rewards are awesome...
