    Blog: I want to motivate my team to get the most important things done.

    Why is it vital for leaders to know how to properly motivate their teams? When projects come up that are uninteresting or if a project goes from fun to frustrating, leadership can light a fire under their employees to push the limits on projects. Think of a leader who helped you see the value of what you are doing or energized you to do your best despite challenging circumstances. It changes people from going through the motions to bringing out their best work.

    Blog: Manage Your Time and Energy Effectively

    When there’s too much to do, some things on your task list will inevitably remain undone. You can frantically try to do everything and wait to see which things fall through the cracks—or you can give yourself a reprieve by deciding ahead of time what to prioritize.

    Blog: We’d like to build a high-trust culture where great ideas are cultivated.

    An award-winning garden doesn’t start with seeds; it begins with rich, fertile soil. If the soil is lacking, the seeds won’t produce a good crop. Both are essential, but one is dependent on the other. In the same way, creativity and innovation don’t happen on teams where the culture isn’t healthy. They happen when there’s high trust among team members, where they value and respect each other. High trust sets the stage for high innovation; low trust ensures mediocre results. Want great idea

    Blog: I can’t decide which of our many goals are the highest priority and where to focus our time.

    Confucius said, “He who chases two rabbits, catches neither.” We know that in most areas of life, focus leads to accomplishment.

    Blog: We need a culture that’s so strong that competitors can’t lure our people away.

    Culture is hard to define but huge in terms of its impact on an organization. When people are part of a culture they like, it’s often hard for them to describe exactly how the culture works.

    When you collaborate with onsite employees, it’s easy to see what they’re up to. But with remote team members, you really don’t know—and you can’t install hidden cameras in their homes to see if they’re actually working. You want to trust them, but you’re not sure how that can happen.
