Lost in the fog? Yell loudly.

Colleagues,

MVP: 
  • Working on a new team can be like walking on a familiar path through a dense fog.
  • Good ideas become great ideas when other can build on them.
 
Way back on August 26 I shared a story about my son Collin and I hiking through a place that we knew well but had trouble recognizing in the fog.
 
I likened that to leading in circumstances in which you knew the path but couldn’t see clearly.
 
This resonated with many of you. Leader-reader and instructional coach extraordinaire Kari Furtick shared, “With a fairly new team, I am learning to "call out to others" and use my navigation tools to help lead me through the fog.  This blend is allowing me to gain insight and trust while we move forward both individually and as a collective group.”
 
Three takeaways:
  1. A new team is necessarily foggy. Read the week’s emails from Sept. 5-9 to refresh yourself on building those relationships! You can also listen to my Five for Friday recap podcast here or video here. 😉
  2. Good ideas become great ideas when they are shared. I hadn’t even thought about new teams when I wrote the message, but others did and now we have an idea that is more useful.
  3. “Call out to others.” How do we know where we are (metaphorically) if we don’t communicate?

Cheers!

Frederick
