Time and again in life we will be
confronted with challenges that put our team work to the test. In
99% of cases it is a mindset among members of the team that creates
the tension and drives the rift. My mind always goes back to the
many youth camps I attended, with countless games teaching us the
value of working as a cohesive unit.
Game after game taught us to see that
when working together in unity, even a physically challenged team
could achieve victory. Ironically this was even proven with our
“down time” activities, like dare I mention it.....the shaving
cream fights.
I'm sure I've told the story before but
in one instance it took only a hand full of girls that I managed to
rustle together as my possie, for us to raid the boys bungalow and
disarm them completely leaving them with only rage as their weapon.
I definitely did not go home smelling
like roses after that youth camp :-)
What team challenge are you facing
right now? Do you have the courage to dare to challenge the thinking
in your team to break free from conflict and see your team changed?
