MENTALITY

the moment
will always
seem to be
invincible.”
– George Orwell
A winning mentality is instrumental
in the success or failure of any
project or task.
A manager can directly
create this mentality.

TO DO IT

Make sure your team never lose sight of their
goals, this will keep them focussed on winning
and being successful.
If a project is broken down into smaller, more
arduous tasks - regularly remind everyone of
the main goals to keep them thinking positively
about the task.

Keeping your team focussed on incentives can
help foster a winning mentality.
