Great teams hold together. Great teams are bonded. What, however are those bonds? What enables a team to work and live together. . .enjoy each other's personalities and revel in their talents? These simple, eleven concepts explain it all.
Common Purpose - all pulling together, same direction to the same goal.
Honesty - not "Real Housewives I feel I must share how much I hate what you're wearing. . ." but instead the ability to relate, comprehend and honor what's real.
Humor - you've got to laugh.
Work Ethic - some will always work hard than others, but all must contribute.
Principled - you all will do what's right.
Sense of Accomplishment - at the end of the day, you all realize that what you're doing is important,
Trust - like a family, maybe better than a family.
Loyalty - loyal to the cause and to the team.
Empathy - walking in the other person's shoes.
Compassion - the ability to understand.
Joy - Yes, joy!
This is what I've experienced and this is what I know to be true. . .if you're team has these things - you really are a team for the ages.
