38. Catalyzing your team’s collective
intelligence with those five practices in
crisis time will accelerate the leadership
development of your coworkers, helping
them to build more confidence in
themselves, in their team and in you.
Your team will then take more and more
ownership for their endeavors and
increase their chances to disrupt the
business in the most profitable way. What
does it take? Your champion’s discipline
of maintaining and refining those five
practices over time. As the Chinese
proverb goes, “The best time to plant a
tree was 20 years ago.
The second-best time is now.”
