[virtuous-leadership-school] Team Development (delayed post)

Asylum AM
AO: virtuous-leadership-school
Q: Borg
PAX: Spellcheck, Mermaid, Borg
FNGs: None
COUNT: 3
WARMUP: Prayer, coffee and a fire

THE THANG:
Discussed Team Development in real life. Below are some interesting questions brought up by the PAX that can reflect on both the leadership and members of a team.

– John Pryne lyrics – “How can you work all day, come home and have nothing to say?” Like men sitting in a bible study group week after week and never saying anything.
– If guys don’t have something to say, what are they studying? Who are they interacting with? What’s on their mind?

How do you know if you are on mission as a team? Failure is easy to see, but what does success look like? This brought up the recurring issues of
– Being Aware
– Evaluating
– Adjusting

Maybe one of the most important things in Team Development is removing the wrong people, soon enough. We discussed times we had chronic problems with team members and how the delegation (or lack of delegation) of responsibility to us helped, hindered, or blocked resolution.

Some men seem to see F3 as a club, not as a team- what’s the difference? Others seem to see it as a team and make adjustments to the Qs to fit the team needs and capabilities.

How you communicate and how it is received are both critical to staying on mission.

We discussed the 80/1 Rule that was described in this chapter. The 1% cannot be delegated.

We discussed how we had dealt with situations where we were put in charge, but not allowed to set the standards or given the authority to make corrections with chronic problem team members.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
