This blog assumes that blind spots of power come with the CEO role no matter how good or true or well-intended you are. You can't afford to have them. So I give reminders of what I have seen in my experience to help you see. Or try to see. Monday morning practical tips will help you sharpen up and see what tweaks you and your blind spot. A little whack on the side of the head with your Monday morning coffee.

OH, YES THERE IS!-
OH YES THERE IS!!
There really really is an X factor to a true team
As in exponential
As in magic multiplier
I've experience it as a team member
I've built it as a leader
I've seen what team does for results and a healthy company culture
And I've seen the opposite.
It can't be faked.
It is rare.
And it does make impossible things happen.
The Red Sox pennant of 2013 affirms it.
Evenly matched players
Each expert in their own role
Each needing the other to meet the goal
No super stars
All pulling on the same rope--their language
A steady at the rudder coach
Having fun
Blinking away set backs
One goal
Under tough economic duress--
With a world in turmoil--
With self-centered over paid leaders--
Team-ness can be over looked as a luxury
It can be viewed as soft, indulgent and an unnecessary cost
Don't blind yourself to the results power of team
Not if you want to win a pennant.
Not, not, not, not, not.
Go team
