Welcome back, for Week 5
Develop & lead a championship support team – creating “ win-win” everywhere
So much could be written about the power of teams and synergies and already has. This newsletter will be unique, in coming to you with several guides attached and sample ideas. My suggestion to you is to sit with your teams and take the best and leave the rest.
To begin, let me cite from the book, The Discipline of Teams, which helps small groups implement the disciplines, frameworks, tools, and techniques that enable performance. With detailed guidance and dozens of indispensable exercises, they present a regimen proven to improve performance and help groups adhere to the Six Basic Principles of Team Discipline:
- Keep team membership small
- Ensure that members have complementary skills
- Develop a common purpose
- Set common goals
- Establish a commonly agreed upon working approach
- Integrate mutual and individual accountability

1. Eliminate – negative, miserable and incompetent employees
2. Fabricate – an organizational structure
3. Orchestrate – systems for everything
4. Motivate – recruit, train, motivate and retain your team
5. Indoctrinate – share your vision with your team
6. Delegate – as much as you possibly can, except the responsibility!
7. Congregate – make it a priority to listen to your team regularly
8. Compensate – your team well and institute a group performance bonus system

Smart Trust: Creating Prosperity, Energy, and Joy in a Low-Trust World by Greg Link & Stephen M.R. Covey (Jan 10, 2012)
Here we go again – another great book to fuel the fires of actually being more effective and happy. After listening to series of lead in, beta testing development calls for this book, it is now here, in audio and in print. My 20+ year affiliation with all things FranklinCovey has never disappointed me – ever – and this latest release continues to add to their momentum and their right-on-the-mark relevance. You must see for yourself. At least, as an appetizer, order the cd, for less than $10, and make your own determinations. Let me know. Obvious common sense?? Maybe. Obvious common practice?? You tell me. Possible to master?? Well, let’s see…
And I’d be remiss not to at least give you a heads up – more to come.
That’s it for this week – let’s talk again soon – good luck in the coming days. See you next week!!
