This document discusses strategies for building, keeping, and working with teams based on the leadership examples of Abraham Lincoln, Lou Holtz, and Tony Dungy. It recommends bringing a team together by setting clear criteria and recruiting the best people. It suggests keeping a team together by regulating one's own emotions and managing relationships well. Finally, it proposes working a team together through establishing ground rules and setting ambitious goals, as illustrated by Lincoln's emancipation of slaves, Holtz's national championship, and Dungy's Super Bowl win. The overall message is that strong leadership can unite individuals to achieve great successes through a shared purpose and culture of discipline.
The document discusses what makes a good coach and provides examples. It outlines that good coaches know the sport, seek new information, are motivators, know their athletes, communicate effectively, are good listeners, lead by example, and display commitment. It provides examples of top coaches like John Wooden and Vince Lombardi who had playing experience before coaching. Coaches also understand players' perspectives from their own playing experiences. However, former players can still think individually rather than considering the team. Overall, a good coach needs passion for the game and players.
The document provides a detailed summary of the Bollywood movie Chak De India. It discusses how the movie depicts various organizational behavior concepts such as team building, group formation, leadership, conflict management, and influence of groups on individuals. The movie follows the journey of the Indian women's hockey team as they overcome conflicts and challenges under the leadership of their coach to become a cohesive unit and ultimately win the world cup.
The documents provide tips for building team spirit and improving relationships. Some key points include:
- Develop team banners, t-shirts, and hold gatherings to boost morale and bring the team together.
- Participate in runs/walks for charitable causes to promote team bonding and community involvement.
- Write articles for newsletters to celebrate team accomplishments.
- Lead by positive example to influence and motivate other team members. Forgiveness, respect, trust and understanding are important for maintaining good relationships.
