The trick was to identify what motivated each individual and turn that to the common goal.<br /><br />Now it seems we have a formula for success and individuals must comply with that formula if they want to succeed. There is no room for individualism, working to your strength or just doing what it takes. That doesn't fit the formula and straying from the formula is a risk AND RISK IS BAD!<br /><br />Avoid risk, allowing risk can lead to responsibility for failure. Managing risk means managing potential for being responsible for failure. FAILURE IS THE END OF THE WORLD! Nothing good comes from failure.<br /><br />I see this in both the sporting and the corporate world and when leaders behave this way it saps the confidence of those below.<br /><br />So if we want a successful Aus cricket team, we need leaders who will take a risk. Who are prepared to trust their ability to manage people and get the best out of each individual. To throw the formulas out and work with the people. Abuse those that respond to abuse, coddle those that are better coddled, leave alone those that operate better in isolation. Be a leader.<br /><br />NautNautilushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709472759179704843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2485469691062620401.post-72029266602808486542013-03-12T21:33:33.392-07:002013-03-12T21:33:33.392-07:00Indeed sir.

I don't worry much about it as I am at the top of my band and never likely to progress further given which part of the organisation I work so positive performance reports aren't a high priority. But since I stopped caring my reports have improved.<br /><br />And what is our preferred culture. Try and guess what organisation I work from our preferred culture statement <br /><br />"Confident people working together for the future”<br /><br />and we have spent time, resources, training budget, peoples sanity on this stuff for years now. <br /><br />So I feel for the cricketers I do, but its not like its anything the rest of us haven't had to suck up and smile.
