As a tech leader, it's essential to understand that your intelligence alone won't guarantee success. Encouraging growth and collaboration among team members is much more important. In his Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame enshrinement speech John Stockton said "I played 30 years competitively... Not once, never, was I the best player on my team." This quote emphasizes the significance of teamwork and collaboration. His humility and willingness to elevate others made him a great leader and kept his teams competitive at the highest level throughout his career. As a tech leader, you should aspire to be a facilitator of growth and teamwork, not just the smartest person in the room. When you encourage and foster collaboration, great things can happen! #teambuilding #leadership #collaboration

Sometimes you gotta do hard things even when you don't want to. That's my daughter, who had to play goalie for her 3rd/4th grade lacrosse team last weekend. I think I can say pretty confidently that goalie is NOT a popular position to play at this age...or maybe any age. She was nervous about this mainly because she wanted to do a good job and she wasn't sure she would. We talked about the importance of being there for your team and trying your best, and if you let in a few goals, that's ok. Showing up is the most important thing. She let in a few goals but also made some saves that I didn't think she could make! Her team - and her parents - were really proud of her. This made me think about all the leaders out there (myself included) who show up everyday and give it their all, even when they may not know exactly what to do. Being a leader is a really HARD job with lots you can't control. But there is one thing you can do that my daughter reminded me of - the importance of showing up for your team. #leadership #leadingteams #sports

Developing leaders to lead with IMPACT - Inclusivity, (Growth) Mindset, Purpose, Authenticity, Courage, Trust
The essence of a high performing team - “I hope that when people watch us play, they see the joy that we play with, that we love playing together, and we got it done together. I feel like that’s the most important thing.” -- Jrue Holiday, Boson Celtic point guard and two-time NBA champion. This year's Celtics team is a full on education in leadership and what it means to be a high performing team. Winning the title is incredible. Even more so is the focus on 1) A talent strategy built on acquisition and on-going development 2) Building a high performing team by integrating and aligning individual mindsets and behaviors to create breadth and depth 3) Leadership and accountability throughout the organization 4) A clear vision of success and the path to attain it 5) Being resilient and learning from failure to perform differently and better 6) Motivating and inspiring each other to be their best 7) Loving what you do 8) A belief in the team over the individual. When you read what the team has to say, it's most often *we* over *i.* This article encapsulates this all so well. Even if you're not a basketball fan, I encourage you to read on to see a high performing team who truly loves what they do and loves their team. Thanks for the ride this year and showing how a team succeeds with everyone playing their part! #humancenteredleadership #celtics #coaching #leadershipdevelopment #managerdevelopment Thought you'd like this one - Jim Malley Kimberly Rowell Jason Osher, PhD Regina Malley Tal Ben-Shahar Amy Edmondson Rachel L Glazer Erik Lemay Tricia Keefe Carol Goyette Gabriela Spear Karen Balcom Jenn Nyiri Jenn Rappoli Jamey M.

Wow! Age does not matter and what matter is an attitude. He demonstrates humility and gratitude, acknowledging that success is a collective effort rather than an individual achievement. This displays his ability to inspire and motivate others by valuing their contributions and fostering a sense of belonging and teamwork. Furthermore, Bopanna’s mention of his family reflects his strong sense of values and priorities. A true leader not only excels in their professional pursuits but also prioritizes relationships and family life. By acknowledging the role of his family in his success, Bopanna demonstrates integrity and authenticity, traits that are essential for effective leadership. Overall, Rohan Bopanna’s leadership extends beyond the tennis court, inspiring others to recognize the importance of teamwork, humility, and gratitude in achieving success. His ability to lead by example and to prioritize relationships serves as a powerful reminder of the qualities that define exceptional leadership. #Rohanbopanna#sportmanship#leadership

At the heart of every great team is a passion for growth—both personally and professionally. Today, we witnessed this spirit in full swing as our top producer, Giffari, shared his love for tennis with the VAL Tennis Interest Group. What struck me most wasn't just the technical skills being honed, but the energy and camaraderie that filled the court. Giffari’s dedication to coaching, cultivated over a decade, is a reminder that excellence comes from not just doing what you love, but sharing that passion with others. As leaders, it's our job to create spaces where our team members can thrive, find joy, and connect in ways that go beyond the everyday grind. Whether it's through sports, mentorship, or simply a shared goal, these moments of connection are what make us stronger. So, here’s my takeaway: Find what you love, share it with others, and watch your team flourish. Ready to be part of a team that grows together, learns together, and has a blast along the way? We’re always looking for passionate individuals who want to elevate their game—on and off the court. #Leadership #Bonding #Tennis #TeamSpirit #LeadershipInAction #JoinTheFun #LearnAndGrow #InspireToAspire

Those who know me understand how important sports have been in shaping me both personally and professionally. Yesterday I had the chance to catch the Florida Panthers on TV as they were crowned champions of the NHL Stanley Cup Final. These kinds of matches are always so thrilling to watch, and also love the post-match interviews when emotions are running high and the team gets to reflect on what enabled their triumph. It's never just about the talent or the leadership or the work product. It's about how, as a team and collective organization, they: 1. Show up for each other every day 2. Respect what each person brings to the team 3. Trust one another to do their part and be accountable 4. Fill in the gaps to strengthen the whole 5. Respond to challenges, including failure Sharing a quick clip from Kyle Okposo as well as a few quotes from Panthers Head Coach Paul Maurice. Hope this is a little inspo you can take with you as you wrap up this week and, for many of us, the end of Q2. Let's play to win. Focus on the team. “These guys are different. It’s the way they treat each other. They love each other. It starts with Barkov and filters down...That room has been special since Day 1.” "We needed to lose three in the final to learn how to win four." #winningstrategies #playtowin #powerofteam

Being huge basketball fan and casual player myself, I was elated watching the Boston Celtics winning the 2024 NBA finals over the Dallas Maverick in Game 5 (4-1) live on the TV this morning. As the Celtics celebrate their well-deserved victory, let's reflect on what we can learn from their journey: 1. *Teamwork triumphs*: Each player brought their unique strengths to the table, proving that collective effort yields champion results. 2. *Resilience pays off*: The Celtics faced setbacks like losing the finals in 2022 and injuries but persevered, demonstrating the power of grit and determination. 3. *Coaching matters*: Joe Mazzulla , though is young but his's strategic guidance and leadership played a crucial role in the team's success, highlighting the impact of effective leadership. 4. *Adaptation is key*: The Celtics adjusted their game plan to overcome challenges, showing the importance of adaptability in achieving goals. 5. *Celebrating milestones*: The Celtics' victory reminds us to acknowledge and celebrate our accomplishments, no matter how small they may seem. Let's apply these lessons to our own professional journeys and strive for our own "championship wins"! #BostonCeltics #NBAChampions #LeadershipLessons #Teamwork #Resilience #Coaching #Adaptation #CelebratingSuccess"

𝐇𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐂 𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐗𝐈 Returning back to cricket at my local club 2 years later. 𝘈 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩 𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 🏏💪🏾 Faced with the challenge of losing early wickets, there was a temptation to go out and just start swinging the bat. However, by carefully assessing the situation and adapting my approach, I was able to win the game for my team and contribute to the team's efforts. In cricket or any any sports, thoughtful decisions can change the course of the game. Likewise, in our careers, strategic and well-considered decisions pave the way for achieving our objectives and driving success for our teams. Always asses the situation and try your best in making the right decisions, whether on the field or in the boardroom. #Cricket #Leadership #DecisionMaking #Teamwork #Success
