“Teamwork is the ability to work
together toward a common vision....It is the fuel that allows common
people to attain uncommon results." -- Andrew
Carnegie |
Erik
Weihenmayer is the only blind man in history to reach the
summit of Mount Everest. Reflecting on that
experience Erik writes, "In an environment riddled with pitfalls,
roping up with good people is the best chance we
have....You know if you fall, someone will stop you. If
someone else falls, you stop them; it's just automatic. People might
have different responsibilities, different goals, even motives, but you
link together behind one vision. The scope and power of
that kind of team is unstoppable."
The Bottom
Line: Leaders build teams that are "roped together"
and working toward a common vision to attain uncommon
results. |
