As a leader, you're probably not doing a good job unless your employees can do a good impression of you when you're not around.

A core value is something you're willing to get punished for.

Great teams do not hold back with one another. They are unafraid to air their dirty laundry. They admit their mistakes, their weaknesses, and their concerns without fear of reprisal.

Leaders must display their humanness. Those under their authority must be empowered & have the courage to engage in honest dialogue.

If everything is important, then nothing is.

Like a good marriage, trust on a team is never complete; it must be maintained over time.

Experiential team exercises can be valuable tools for enhancing teamwork as long as they are layered upon more fundamental and relevant processes.
