Setting
the Pace For Your Team
Pace setting is the most commonly over-looked leadership
tool. Within any group there are a variety of leadership
styles. Some team members want to move fast, while others
feel comfortable staying behind making sure no assignment
is missed and every mistake corrected. Exceptional team
leaders understand the cadence of their team, recognize
trends resulting in low engagement, and anticipate pace
adjustments needed to find success as a team.
Four Factors of Team Success
No one succeeds alone. There are four common threads
that contribute to team success- effort, unity, skill,
and execution. There is a belief that teams have a limit
to the accomplishments that can be achieved. These are
teams that haven’t learned to tap into their team’s
unlimited resources-motivation, selfness, focused enhancement,
and expectation. When combined with effort, unity, skill,
and execution; a team’s potential grows limitless.
Managing the Engagement Cycle
Engagement is a cycle that every person experiences
from the highest level (actively engaged) to the lowest
(actively disengaged.) The key for organizational success
is to accurately and effectively identify the level
of engagement of their team members. We have found the
most productive and successful organizations are the
ones that discover trends that predict change in team
member engagement. When members discover how important
they are to the success of the team, individual and
team engagement levels increase. Organizations need
to start investing in their employees by embracing their
personal strengths.
Setting Expectations
Josh has been building and managing successful relationships
or the past 20 years. Through these experiences he has
developed an understanding of “Setting Expectations”
and the importance this has on managing successful relationships.
The presentation will cover how to identify personal
expectations. This is an essential starting point in
every relationship because it provides a clear standard
of what is expected from each member. Josh will teach
proven methods on how to handle disappointment from
unmet expectations and learn to reset the original standard
and expectation.
