The more our team achieves success collectively, the more likely we will continue to achieve success. The opposite effect can also be true! As a leader I can also influence my own team's effectiveness by being optimistic and expressing a little faith in our efforts! I also have to be realistic about the things we can really accomplish! Lastly, I must also be willing to get into the work with the team and CELEBRATE progress!]]> 2017-07-25 14:19:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mechielr/3v3lu4lg0low/wish/179411763 Resources & Political Support https://padlet.com/mechielr/3v3lu4lg0low/wish/179411864 1.
