The Table Group

💡 Shiny new ideas can be exciting, but don’t lose sight of what’s already working. Innovation should enhance, not replace, existing strengths. Here's a very simple exercise to consider doing at an upcoming meeting: 1️⃣ List three things your team does exceptionally well. 2️⃣ Ask: Are we protecting and strengthening these, or getting distracted by chasing something new?  3️⃣ Discuss one way to reinforce what’s already driving success.

What do you get when you combine The Ideal Team Player, The Six Types of Working Genius, and the Five Dysfunctions of a Team? A simple and comprehensive framework for building high-performing teams.

📢 Quote: "I'm convinced that simplicity is the scarcest commodity among leaders, and probably the most important." — Patrick Lencioni ✅ Takeaway: Complexity creates confusion. Leaders who simplify messages, processes, and priorities help their teams stay focused and productive. 🛠 Team Exercise: Take one major initiative your team is working on and challenge everyone to explain it in one sentence. If it can’t be simplified, it may be too complex. Ask: What can we eliminate or clarify to make this less confusing? #Simplicity #Leadership #OrganizationalEffectiveness

What if your team had a single, unifying rallying cry for the year ahead? A clear, compelling goal that cuts through the noise, breaks down silos, and aligns everyone around what truly matters.

“A leadership team cannot be cohesive if its members don’t understand and tap into one another’s geniuses.” -- Patrick Lencioni

"Leaders who can identify, hire, and cultivate employees who are HUMBLE, HUNGRY, and SMART will have a serious advantage over those who cannot." --Patrick Lencioni (The Ideal Team Player) These three essential virtues are required in order to be a team player, and every high-performing team is made up of them.
