Crucial
Important
I just turn up
If you are part of a team everything you do – or everything you don’t do - is crucial to the success or
failure of your team.
Whether you turn up and train on time every week, whether you are a complainer or a ‘roll your
sleeves up athlete’, whether you give 100% or whether you give 50% contributes to the quality
and the experience of everyone in your team. Your behaviour can help to motivate or to de-motivate
your team.
Think of a team you have been a part of that has been a great experience.
What was good about that team? How did that team make you feel?
How did you act in that team?
Now think of a team that was not so good. How did the people get on?
How did you feel? Did you give 100% to this team? When people work together
as in a team, they can do great things.
Put your thoughts on the diagram on the next page for both good and bad teams.
