Team Coaching . . . Working Together Productively
“The way a team plays as a whole determines its success.
You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don’t play together, the club won’t be worth a dime.” - Babe Ruth, U.S. baseball player
Sports teams have long been used as a laboratory for seeing what leadership ideas and strategies work. Each individual is a complex mixture of talent, strengths,
weaknesses, emotions, and attitudes. Using their talents in tandem, they become much stronger than they could be individually.
Take a group of people and bring them together in an organization, and the process of making things work becomes more complicated and uncertain. Teamwork is about
collaboration—working together productively to bring about effective outcomes. It’s an art form that doesn’t necessarily happen automatically.
