This week’s quote comes from the Be a Better Manager: Working with Others section of our Quote Library and can help with morale, productivity, employee engagement and overall performance.
It has been selected in celebration of the Final Four of March. And the final four days of Q1. And the final four teams left in the NCAA tournament.
Lots of people are pushing to make monthly or quarterly goals. Lots of teams are pushing to win. Certainly serious pursuits. Distance is sure to develop or intensify as deadlines loom and disagreements brew. Distance between individual team members. Distance between team members and leader. Distance that does no one any good. Except perhaps the competition.
It’s a good gap to quickly close in the name of morale, productivity, engagement and overall performance. It might take some serious mediation or conflict resolution – but often, especially if caught soon enough, a little laughter will do the trick.
There are some people, like my husband, who have a gift of saying something funny when tension rises. Even if you are lucky enough to have that natural gift, or a person on our team with that natural gift, additional strategies may be needed.
We’ll share 10 of those by 10:00 on Tuesday.
