Set clear goals and expectations from "summary" of The Power of a Positive Team by Jon Gordon
One of the key principles for creating a positive team is to establish clear goals and expectations. This is essential for providing direction and focus for the team members. When everyone is on the same page about what they are working towards, it fosters a sense of unity and purpose within the team. Setting clear goals helps to define the vision and mission of the team. It gives team members a target to aim for and a roadmap to follow. When goals are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound, it becomes easier for team members to track their progress and stay motivated. In addition to setting clear goals, it is important to communicate expectations clearly. This includes defining roles and responsibilities, outlining performance standards, and establishing guidelines for communication and collaboration. When expectations are clearly communicated, it reduces misunderstandings and conflicts within the team. By setting clear goals and expectations, team leaders create a framework for success. It provides a sense of structure and accountability that helps to keep everyone aligned and working towards a common goal. When team members know what is expected of them and how their contributions fit into the bigger picture, it motivates them to perform at their best.- Setting clear goals and expectations is about creating a foundation for a positive team culture. It establishes a sense of clarity, direction, and purpose that empowers team members to work together towards a shared vision. When everyone is working towards the same goals and expectations, it creates a sense of unity and cohesion that drives the team towards success.
