7 Steps To A Stronger Team

1. Link Paycheck to Purpose.  – Contrary to popular belief, money is not the strongest motivator of

people. – The deepest source of motivation comes from having a heartfelt

commitment to achieving a meaningful objective. – People will go far beyond the call of duty in performing work they view

as important.

Page 21: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team2. Practice Unorthodox Leadership.  Be a leader who takes the road less

traveled when it comes to how you motivate your team.  … – Begin every meeting "celebrating the heroes", acknowledging top performers and asking

them to share their success strategies for the benefit of the team as a whole.  – Have bar-b-q’s, and pot-lucks – bring in pizza– Give movie tickets, dinner for two coupons, etc.– Buy T-shirts or hats with the team logo– These business rituals not only inspires the "heroes" to work even harder, but also sends a

powerful message to all that excellence will be recognized.

Page 22: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team

3. Create Symbols of Victory.  To rally your team behind your vision, come up with a series of visible tokens of what success will mean. 

– Give a “Top Performer” pin or patch– Designate one office wall as the "victory wall", placing motivational quotes,

testimonial letters and strategic goals on it. 

• Simple acts can energize the entire team. Remember, passion is contagious.

Page 23: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team4. Apply the Platinum Rule.  "Crack the codes" of your

employees. – Find out what makes them tick and what it will take to inspire them to

extraordinary achievement. – Make the people who work for you feel important and treat them as they

would wish to be treated. – Listen to their suggestions.  – Deeply understand their needs.  – Let them make decisions.  – Help them move towards their dreams.

Page 24: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team5. Reward Regularly, Recognize Routinely. 

– Sincere praise for a job well done is the best way to develop a consistently peak performing team. 

• In one study of over 1500 employees, personalized, instant recognition was found to be the top way to energize employees. Yet only 42% received such praise. 

• Rewards can also help your team to grow and include books, tapes and magazine subscriptions.

• Reward those activities you want repeated and praise your people. – Behavior rewarded, is behavior repeated.

Page 25: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team

6. Keep Your Promises and Be the Model.  – True leadership is less about position and more about action.  – Dynamic leaders consistently do what they said they would do. 

• They walk their talk, are ethical and lead by example.  – Holding yourself to the same high standards you set for your team builds both

unity and loyalty. – A team's motivation is determined by the leader's commitment.

Page 26: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team7. Strive For Continuous Renewal.

– Confucius said, "Good people strengthen themselves ceaselessly." 

– Similarly, top teams are constantly learning, growing and renewing.

• Provide learning opportunities for your team members, so that they continue to grow professionally as well as personally. 

• People are happiest when they are moving forward and expanding their talents, skills and abilities.

Page 27: A Coaches Clinic Coaching For Results. Agenda Coaching vs. Counseling Coaching – What Is It? Before You Can Coach Coaching By Training Precaution for.

7 Steps To A Stronger Team• Don't forget to carve out time for personal reflection and self-

renewal. – All too often leaders destroy their own creativity, energy and enthusiasm by

stretching themselves too thin and neglecting themselves for the sake of the bottom line. 

– Saying that you are too busy to exercise or take a well-deserved vacation is like saying you are too busy driving to stop for gas - eventually it will catch up with you. 

– Remember, to lead an effective team you must effectively lead yourself.
