Vince Lombardi was well known as a great motivator, who excelled in getting the most out of his teams. In this post we will look at how he fostered a culture of teamwork.
I worked in, for and against many (so-called) teams in business. I've also led teams, in reality my job is really about helping to create teams for businesses. In saying that, while 'team building' and 'working as part of a team' are words that are used a lot in business.
The reality however is that the majority of businesses neither want or understand what it means to build a team. Businesses who understand the term build their business around their teams, businesses who don't attempt to build their teams around their business.
We pay a lot of hommage to the notion that it's about our people, that they are the most important factor, but in truth we rarely mean it?
