Building Healthy Teams
Leadership is more than standing behind a pulpit, inspiring an audience. Leadership is more than sitting in an office with a title that says “C.E.O.” Leadership is about people. It’s about the capacity to influence, rally, and motivate a group of individuals to unite as a team and accomplish a vision. No one is truly a leader unless they can build a healthy team.
But not every team that calls itself a team is actually a team. Some so-called “teams” are simply groups of people sharing common interests. Other so-called “teams” are merely people gathered together because of their positions in an organization. What makes a team is more specific.
Becoming a team requires focus, collaboration, and productivity. Teams are defined by the results they produce and the efficiency by which they produce it.
Building Healthy Teams will help both leaders and team members to fully appreciate the value of teams and the unique opportunity that serving on one provides.
