In recent months I have observed a decent amount of politically correct discourse on the topic of teambuilding and equality. The gist of the argument seems to be that for teams to be productive, employees have to feel “empowered&# by having an equal voice. I can sum-up my feeling on this in one word… ridiculous.
While this sounds simple enough at face value, I have consistently found that one of the most often overlooked leadership attributes is that of a positive attitude. If you struggle with recruiting, teambuilding, and leadership development you likely have a bad attitude.
Whether you like it or not, your success as a CEO will be largely tied to your teambuilding ability. Not only do great CEOs understand how to recruit a top executive team, but they also understand how to build cohesion among team members through collaboration while addressing specific situational and contextual needs.
If you’re looking to benchmark your leadership ability the following self examination will give you a baseline to build from. If you check your ego at the door and give a thoughtful, introspective evaluation of your ability, it is likely that you’ll learn something about your leadership abilities or lack thereof.
The articles should have been written on the topic of poor leadership. Toxic work environments can only exist where a lack of trust and respect are present, and this can only occur in the absence of sound leadership. Those team members who share the same core values will be predisposed to trusting one another at high levels.

Anyone who has ever been in a leadership position has had to deal with the inevitable tough relationship that causes more than its fair share of brain damage.
You need to believe that one of your top priorities is teambuilding, and consistently seek out greater numbers of people to champion your cause and scale your efforts. Don’t be bashful or embarrassed, but rather confidently recruit others to become enablers and evangelists of your cause. Thanks for sharing Una.
The number of activities a CEO takes on can certainly vary based upon skill sets, stage of corporate maturation, and the talent level of the rest of the executive team. Kicking the bird out of the nest and saying go fly with the project is short sighted and very weak leadership.
Creating a framework for decisioning, using a published delegation of authority statement, encouraging sound business practices in collaboration, teambuilding, leadership development, and talent management will all help even out the uneven. Where there is disagreement there is an inherent potential for growth and development.
A leader’s message has a direct impact on their personal and corporate brand equity, how they manage a crisis, marketing initiatives, investor relations, press and public relations, teambuilding and employee engagement, and virtually any other mission critical area of chief executive responsibility.
Design will impact your messaging, positioning, business modeling, teambuilding, resourcing, branding, and virtually every functional aspect of what you do. If you’re a leader, don’t dismiss design as elemental or insignificant.
