Are you part of a team? How do you build a tag team? How to achieve flawless execution of each member and the whole team?

by Karpfish
Here is my take
- Plan Ahead Or Plan Your Back Up Plan.
- Hire potential, not skills.
- Commit on shared values.
- Build vulnerability-based Trust in Your Teams.
- Each member is an Eagle, not a Duck.
- Share knowledge and opportunities.
- Practice Emotional Intelligence Core and High Order Skills.
- Grow Quality - Not Quantity
- Personal accountability is key.
- Provide and ask for contionous feedback.
“Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.” - Henry Ford
Stomp Out Loud is my vision for how tag team should look like.

Bravo! You’re getting astute with you concise yet powerful writing. It’s hard to add anything to what you’ve mentioned about team building. Team building to me is a collective conscious of individual achievement.

Actually I forgot this one - “Love your dogs”

- Fixing your dogs can yield unexpected levels of shareholder value.
- Improving operations is an important management lever for adding shareholder value.
- Buying and fixing someone else’s dogs will produce more shareholder value than buying stars.
That is why i love doing the following the most:
- Role play. Pretending i am really tough customer (i mean really tough…), i am trying to recognize the creativity in the potential candidate. Trying to identify the point when the candidate give up.
- Ask very simple questions like “why should i hire you?”. I am always surprised how many people surprised with this question.
- Asking simple question “Why you want to work for us?”. I am trying to recognize the passion. Worst answer I heard was “I heard you have great salaries”.
have you checked on this one?

But I was honest, and straightforward, and I guess I conveyed the message that I really am a fast learner and a team player. Plus I had great references.
I am feeling a little braggy for saying all this. But since you asked…
Thanks for sharing this.
