July 28, 2011
Whether you inherited a team because of a role transition or desire to inject new life into your current team, following are some steps you can take to motivate and inspire your team to peak performance.
1. Know what they know...or don't know. How well do they understand their purpose and direction, roles and expectation? What are their priorities?
2. Know who they are ...individually. What do you know about each team member's background, goals, accomplishments or organizational contributions? Do you know what motivates them?
3. Know how they are ... collectively. What are their strengths? What causes strife within the group?
Team success starts with you, the "I" in your team. What will you do this week to take a step towards a more motivated and productive team?
