Leaders invite people to follow
Invitations will get you much further than demands.
How do you improve morale?
Increasing morale requires your leadership in responding to whatever is happening right now.
Take it apart to find the solution
The next time you’re wrestling with a problem and think you’ve found the solution, ask yourself, “What might be causing this to happen?”
Find your allies and you’ll get where you want to be
Whether they challenge or support you, find the allies you need to help you do your best work.
Learning and teamwork go hand in hand
Learning will help your team do more, do it better, and become a stronger team while they’re at it.
When challenged – get smarter
Instead of trying to work harder, it’s far easier to get smarter.
It’s your choice whether a problem upsets you
Your reaction to a problem determines the severity of the problem.
Is your team collaborating or cooperating?
Collaborating or Cooperating: Which do you think is going to give the outcomes you and they want?
Be careful about what you focus on
Stop worrying about what might go wrong.
Stop trying to avoid the problems
Focus on the ability to respond to problems, and nothing can stop you.
