How to Motivate Your Teammates—According to Tom Brady 🏈 Successful team leaders draw out the best—physically, mentally, and emotionally—from their colleagues. Seven-time NFL Super Bowl champion Tom Brady and Harvard Business School professor and former dean Nitin Nohria sorted through Brady’s 20-plus-year career and identified the leadership principles he used to maximize teammates’ performance. Here are a few anyone can put into practice. 🥇Always put the team first. Even when you don’t receive the recognition or opportunities you desire, never blame your team. Instead, be a motivating force by doing what you can to support those who are succeeding. 🥈Show appreciation for the ones who don’t get attention. Team members whose primary responsibilities are vital but not visible won’t always receive the credit they deserve. Even a few simple words of appreciation can make a less-visible teammate feel valued. 🥉Set the standard. If you’re committing 100%, you’ll inspire your team to do the same. Sometimes pace-setting isn’t about working harder, it’s about communicating expectations more candidly. If your team members respect you, they’ll know any criticism is coming from a place of honesty and wanting them to be the best they can be.

I usually do not comment when reposting an article and although I agree with the thesis of this article, I believe it is missing an important perspective. The article discusses the contrasting approaches of being "liked" versus being "loved" as a leader. While being loved requires pushing people beyond their comfort zones towards a greater purpose, to evoke love rather than resentment the leader must genuinely care for each team member and provide the proper support, training, reasons (whys), and meaningful rewards for their hard work. The example given is Bill Belichick pushing his players hard, which they initially disliked. But they ultimately loved and respected him because he could back it up with championships as the greater reward. What is missing in the article is that ruthlessly pushing people without caring about them as individuals or being able to deliver appropriate payoff will breed resentment. True leadership means making the difficult tradeoff of being disliked during the struggle, but earning love by unlocking each player's potential and achieving great things together while supporting the team.

🏆 Believe in Your Process for Team Success 🏆 Legendary quarterback Tom Brady once emphasized, "You have to believe in your process.

Imagine a team stacked with talented individuals, each a shining star in their own right. On paper, this seems like an unstoppable force. But what if these stars all compete for the spotlight, unwilling to share their light or adjust their positions for the good of the whole? The result could be a dazzling display of individual brilliance, but ultimately, a chaotic mess that accomplishes little. Think of a successful sports team - they don't all need to be scoring goals, but each player needs to fulfill their role, supporting their teammates to achieve victory. Similarly, in a business setting, a team with diverse skills and strong communication can tackle complex problems and achieve remarkable results. #leadership #management #executivemanagement #teamleadership #corporate #employee #careeradvancement #upwardmobility #workforce #success #teamwork #team #communication

When our society talks about success, we tend to focus on what we've accomplished as individuals. It's easy to get lost in this way of thinking, but leaders don't accomplish anything by themselves. In fact, nothing of significance in life is ever achieved alone. To do great things, we all rely on our teammates. And to win, team leaders have to find ways to encourage the best physical, mental, and emotional performance from their players. This is something Tom Brady has been reflecting on since retiring from football. Naturally, most people have focused on his role as a quarterback, but he was also a team player, and the way he encouraged those around him to perform better was a vital part of why those teams saw such great success. Brady says there are seven key things every team leader can do to bring their team together and encourage phenomenal performance, here are four of them to get you going: 🌟 Put the team first. Even when facing personal adversity. This change in attitude and dedication to your team can set the tone for the rest of your career. 🌟 Show appreciation for your unsung colleagues. We get so obsessed with the "best of all times" that sometimes the team members who launch such icons into the spotlight are left in the dark. Whether it's your linemen in football or the analytics team in marketing, let every member of your team know they're valued. 🌟 Set the standard and create a culture of 100% effort. In a culture of mutual support teams are able to hold themselves to a higher level of accountability. 🌟 Recognize teammates as individuals and support them as people. Every member of a team is different. Some are motivated by recognition, others by feedback or success. Get to know your teammates and what you can do to support them. #teamwork #teamdynamics
