Teams Win

Teams win. Individuals make up teams, but teams win. I have been sharing John Maxwell's 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork with you this week. Here are a few more. The Law of Countability. Teammates, Maxwell writes, must be able to count on each other when it counts. Can people count on you? The Law of the Price Tag is another of Maxwell's laws for teams. Teams will not reach their potential when they do not pay the price. Don't cut corners. Don't cheat yourself. Then there is the scoreboard. When you know the score, you know where you stand and what adjustments you need to make. The Law of the Bench means that depth is critical. Great teams have great depth. And everyone on that bench is important, or they would not be there. Today's Winning Thought: "If a team is to accomplish its goals, it has to know where it stands." -- John Maxwell
