The One Thing Every Team Needs

I was reading through the book Team That Thrive and the author says, “When it comes to teams, nothing is more important than the team’s purpose.”

 

Every leadership team is guided by their purpose. Everything they are and everything they do, every person they hire, every meeting they call, and every decision they make is determined by that purpose, whether it’s a good one or a bad one.

 

So today I wanted to share with you how a bad purpose can cripple your team and give you 5 characteristics of a thriving purpose.

Team Discussion Guide

Let’s get you and your team started on working through the team’s purpose. Because there are so many aspects of your team’s purpose that you’ll need to consider, you might try and break up this Team Discussion Guide into a couple of different parts so you can tackle this one step at a time.

 

In this Team Discussion Guide you’ll find some Team Exercises that you can do in your next meeting to help you discover what your team currently thinks is its purpose is and some Team Discussion Questions to help you begin collaborating together. Once you complete those two sections, begin answering the questions in the What’s Next Section to help you identify some action steps for you to take this week.
