I believe, and it’s backed up by research from excellent resources, that team leaders who model these seven characteristics, as a starting point, can produce teams who will run through walls for them.
1. Honour and validate every one. No favorites.
2. No-one should be surprised about where they stand with you.
3. Share the lessons your life has taught you. Don’t hold back.
4. Listen up. A prerequisite to caring is listening.
5. Show genuine, compassionate care for every one.
6. Lift everyone up verbally and sometimes physically, and celebrate them when they do good deeds.
7. Be grateful, expressing gratitude for what’s in your own life first. Love of others flows from love of self.

I'm a contemplative soul and unapologetic disciple of JESUS who doesn't have it all together. Blogging helps me to reflect and share life lessons with you. Writing is a spiritual discipline that heals and transforms me. I keep a journal too. I love exploring the physical beauty of my native Ireland esp. swimming in the sea year round. Come and soak up some vitamin Sea with me, and explore the history and heritage of magnificent EIRE.
