Best inspirational quote recently from #LIV #Klopp⚽️: “𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐧, 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞.” That’s why I always encourage the team not to dwell excessively on past achievements or experiences. Instead, let's focus on how we can contribute and achieve even more to elevate ourselves to the next level. 📈

🤔 I often get the question: “How can I motivate my team?” While everyone’s sense of motivation is unique to them, one of the most powerful motivators for humans is feeling that we matter.   👏 I love how this article (link in comments) breaks down mattering into both feeling like we’re appreciated and feeling like we’re contributing value.   💫 What happens if we change the question from “How can I motivate my team?” to “How can I create the conditions for mattering on my team?”

The term "group dynamics" describes the way in which people in a group interact with one another. When dynamics are positive, the group works well together. When dynamics are poor, the group's effectiveness is reduced. Problems can come from weak leadership, too much deference to authority, blocking, groupthink and free riding, among others.(https://lnkd.in/gjEV5wHV) We all reflect positive and negative energy, in prayer we place our fate in God's hands and try not to worry about the evil surrounding us all. Your first and most important "Team" is your family, the ones you love and they love you no matter the condition. Do you believe that something as simple as a bad day for you is just as bad for them. A leaders responsibility is to build and develop members of the team, this includes at home and elsewhere. Your heart must always be in the right place to help develop your team! Proverbs 27, 14-19 14 If anyone loudly blesses their neighbor early in the morning,   it will be taken as a curse. 15 A quarrelsome wife is like the dripping   of a leaky roof in a rainstorm; 16 restraining her is like restraining the wind   or grasping oil with the hand. 17 As iron sharpens iron,   so one person sharpens another. 18 The one who guards a fig tree will eat its fruit,   and whoever protects their master will be honored. 19 As water reflects the face,   so one’s life reflects the heart.[a]

Morning Reflections 1: Intention. Focus. Attention. Wherever these words go, that is what grows in life. Where do I want to place my Attention today? What is the highest Roi? What is the best use of my attention. Is it family? Is it being a leader? Is it my children? Wife?  Everyday all of us make these decisions of where to invest our Attention.  Today, at least at work, my attention will be placed in my team. I will try to be the best leader and team member that I can. Patient, thoughtful, supportive. Sometimes it is very easy to forget to check in with everyone...to be truly present with them. Often there is such a focus on getting the work done and we forget that Leverage is one of the highest forms of output.  When I come home then attention and focus goes into a completely different world. On to the world of family...where we place most of our purpose and meaning.  It is a good day to be alive and well.

NEVER FORGET TO LET YOUR TEAM KNOW HOW MUCH YOU VALUE THEM. As a leader, never take your people for granted; make it a priority to appreciate your team, appreciate their commitment to helping the organization navigate these troubled waters, value their contributions, and, most importantly, thank them for their excellent service. People who feel appreciated will always do more than expected because appreciation is one of life’s greatest motivators. So now more than ever, all of our employees need to be shown some level of recognition for the incredible sacrifice and inspiring work they perform every day during these unprecedented times. When we take the time to let people know that we value them, it inspires them to continue doing even more and reinforces the habit for other people to do the same.

What's your take on how to be more impactful yet less busy in 2024? My personal favs include Stephen Covey's habits, especially (1) begin with the end in mind (what will be really different by year-end? as a team are we all going in the same direction?) and (2) sharpen the saw (am I feeling energized to get after it?). Combine this with daily gratitude (try to see/experience things as if you're seeing/experiencing them for the first time). A humble perspective with a clear direction and intense focus can accomplish much!

When we count a good worker and a non-good worker in the same list, be sure that the heart breaks, which means that we are discouraging our workers who are working from the heart. Do and because of their work we are considered among the best team leaders How can we imagine that our results will improve day by day if we do not reward the best performers on a daily basis, encourage them, respect and honor them in front of others. If you don't increase, then you should be sure that even those who do such good work eventually give up because donkey and horse can never be equal and if donkey and horse are weighed in the same scales, it will be an insult to the horse. A donkey eats all day long and works in the evening A great solution is to improve our intention to improve our intention to improve our thinking for our workers who do excellent work who perform exceptionally well when we do it and praise the good work and The bad doer will be held accountable, the good doer will be rewarded and the bad doer will be explained and asked for his mistake, so our Stores cannot improve on a daily basis.

Being a team leader comes with many challenges.. leading a team of humans comes with challenges. Being a human yourself comes with challenges. what's important is how you face those challenges that matter! I feel that the path to success comes with a door with 3 key holes. 1st key is compassion and understanding: knowing your team, caring for that team, know what motivates them. 2nd key is hard work : I'm a firm believer that you get what you put in.. if you do the work that is needed you will see the results. 3rd and final key is consistency : Remain consistent in everything that you do... how you treat people (regardless of how you feeling) how you drive people how hard you work and the door to success will unlock :) It also helps when you have amazing leaders and even more so a dream team of advisors who make my job easy.

Sometimes if you want to LOOK UP 🆙 to get the best shot, you have to first LOOK DOWN 👇…. Just a good reminder in HUMILITY… We came to the realization recently as a team that out of all the character traits out there that make great team members, HUMILITY provides the right perspective and it needs to be a core value for us … Without humility, you talk more than listen…. Without humility, you aren’t curious because “you already know”… Without humility, rather than earning it, it’s just “expected”… Humility is a non negotiable… Talented? Great! Experienced? Wonderful! Too good to express some humility with your team, clients and candidates? No thanks… Humility actually takes us to new heights…it mends relationships, fosters trust, and generates the right kind of following! As an old timer once said, “be humble, before you stumble!” #humility #stayhumble #perspective

You may be higher up but don’t forget the shoulders you stand on. The pyramid becomes possible because there are people who are on the ground and levels above. They carry the load. They are the enablers. A people’s person will have to have a very considerate approach towards the betterment of these people. A true team leader has to make sure that they escalate through the levels. That way the foundations will be strong enough and durable.
