The law of significance
law of significant means that one is too small of a number to achieve greatness and that means team work is essential for success in every organization. This message is underpinned by a fun team building activity.
The law of the niche
The law of the niche predicts that all players in a team have a place where they add the most value. Essentially, when the right team member is in the right place, everyone benefits. To be able to put people in their proper places and fully utilize their talents and maximize potential, you need to know your players and the team situation. Evaluate each person’s skills, discipline, strengths, emotions, and potential.
The law of the compass
A team that embraces a vision becomes focused, energized, and confident. It knows where it’s headed and why it’s going there. A team should examine its moral, intuitive, historical, directional, strategic, and visionary compass. Does the business practice with integrity? Do members stay? Does the team make positive use of anything contributed by previous teams in the organization? Does the strategy serve the vision? Is there a long-range vision to keep the team from being frustrated by short-range failures?
The law is supported by a fun team-building activity whereby teams build the company’s moral compass.
The law of Mt. Everest
As the challenge escalates, the need for teamwork elevates. Focus on the team and the dream should take care of itself. The type of challenge determines the type of team you require: A new challenge requires a creative team. An ever-changing challenge requires a fast, flexible team. An Everest-sized challenge requires an experienced team. See who needs direction, support, coaching, or more responsibility. Add members, change leaders to suit the challenge of the moment, and remove ineffective members of your team. Place them on the bench.
The law of Mt. Everest is supported by the “Human Pyramid” activity.
The law of the Bench
Great teams have great depth. Any team that wants to excel must have good substitutes as well as starters. The key to making the most of the law of the bench is to continually improve the team. Who belongs to the starting formation, and who is a bench player? An activity that event CEO’s struggle with.
The Law of the scoreboard
The team can adjust when it knows where it stands. The scoreboard is essential to evaluating performance at any given time and is vital to decision-making. The higher the target is, the higher the success rate. This message is supported by the interactive team building activity “Balloon Balance”.
The Law of the Big Picture
The goal is more important than the role. Members must be willing to subordinate their roles and personal agendas to support the team vision. By seeing the big picture, effectively communicating the vision to the team, providing the needed resources, and hiring the right players, leaders can create a more unified team. The law of the big picture was supported by a canvas painting activity.
