3、ontradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.1 How to Build a Winning TeamWinning is about leading your people. And about leading them in four very specific ways. If you travel around the how-to-succeed-in-business lecture circuit
4、enough. which we both happen to do. you end up hearing a lot of interesting stuff about competitive strategy, disruptive(颠覆性)technologies, resource allocation, asset management, and the like. Interestingand sort of beside the point. Because when its all said and done, winning teams win because they
5、have the best players and a coach who knows how to make the sum greater than the parts. Its as simple and as complicated as that. Simple because as soon as people hear that statement, they typically mutter, “Oh, yeah. “ Its hardly a controversial notion that great players plus a great coach equal gr
6、eat performance. Complicated, though, because actually doing it is so hard. We get distracted. The board wants a presentation, or a customer is getting annoyed. Or we lose our nerve. Or we get tired. Whatever:something, anything, makes us forget that winning is about leading your people. And about l
7、eading them in four very specific ways. FIRST, the leaders of winning teams alwaysalwayslet their people know where they stand. Were not talking about“Good job. Sally“, or “Thanks for your hard work, Tom“. Effective leaders let their people know whether they are star performers without whom the orga
8、nization would suffer agony or whether they should be thinking seriously about finding another job. Amazinglyto us, at leastthe habit of continuously evaluating each team member is a rare and wonderful thing. Sure, leaders evaluate their people all the timebut they too seldom share those observation
9、s with the team members themselves. In the silence, stars become disaffected and leave seeking more appreciation, either in the soul or the wallet, or both. Meanwhile, the solid center wanders around in undirected ignorance, and the real underperformers drive their teammates crazy because others mus
10、t carry their load. By contrast, on winning teams, leaders spend the vast majority of their time showering love on top performers. Yes, love:rewarding them for every contribution, building their self-confidence so they have the courage to take on even greater challenges, and holding them up as a rol
11、e model for others on the team. Similarly, on winning teams, leaders devote a lot of energy to middling performers, strictly coaching. And as for the do-nothings: leaders face into these individuals with a sense of reality, spending only the time to help them put together a resume and find a job whe
12、re they will be more successful. Unfortunately, in most organizations, managers spend an excessive amount of time working around their worst people, rearranging work to accommodate their incompetence. They also spend a lot of hours worrying about how they can possibly break it to their underperforme
13、rs that theyre terrible at their jobs without hurting their feelings. Its all backward. Rather than hurting their feelings, youre doing your underperformers a favor if you let them know they need to go, and the sooner the better, before they have to look for work in a recession. SECOND, winning team
14、s know the game plan. Theres never been a Super Bowl team that charged the field thinking. Well figure this out as it goes along and see what happens. And there will never be a winning business team that lacks a clear sense of how the competition thinks and fightsand how its going to think and fight
15、 better. Nor has there ever been a winning team that didnt believe that winning would make life much, much better in very real ways. Dont get us wrong. Were not huge fans of strategic planning as it is commonly taught in business school, nor as it is practiced in too many companies. Lengthy reports
16、about strategy from headquarters or consultantsin particular, those that involve PowerPoint slidesfrankly scare us. No, in todays global market, strategy means picking a general direction and executing like hell. And thats what winning teams do. Heres the problem. Most leaders explain the game plan
17、in vague terms. “We need to gain market share. Thats going to mean beating Acme Widgets, “ they might say. “Everybodys quota is going to be doubled, Change is hard, but its necessary. Go get em. “Ready, forwardwhat?On winning teams, leaders fill their people with crazy-positive enthusiasm about what
18、 winning will look like for the company and, more importanKas its often forgotten), for them as individuals. “Look, Acmes killing us, “they might say. “Their on-time delivering makes us look like were driving horses and carriages around here. But we can beat them by coming up with a better idea for
19、efficiency every single day. And when that happens, your life is going to change and everything is going to get better. Our company will start to grow again; youll have more job security and a chance for advancement. Even though were going to enter into a long, hard period of change ahead, at the ot
20、her end of it, youll be smarter, richer, and your life will be more exciting. “Clarity . Direction. Outcome. Ready, forward, charge. THIRD, winning teams are honest. Or let us be more precise. On every single winning team, you will discover that the leader is frdnk and honest; he rewards everyone el
21、se who is frank and honest, and outs the people who arent candid. Oh, sure, there are exceptions. But in time, they always backfire. Because when people dont say what they mean, play politics, or withhold their ideas, everything gets screwed up. Resentments accumulate. Cliques(小集团)form. Good people
22、leave. Work slows down. By contrast, the simple truth is that frankness breeds trust. And when a team is filled with trust, people play to their better angels. They share ideas freely. They help their colleagues when theyre stuck and need an insight. What they do every day then becomes about the gro
23、ups success, not their own. Theyre not worried about not getting the credit for some big win; they know a teammate will say something like, “Hey, dont thank me. Cary was the one that set the whole thing in motion. “ And Cary will say, “Thanks. I may have had the idea, but you executed. “The honesty-
24、trust connection has another benefit: it promotes an environment of risk-taking. Who wants to try something new if they sense theyll get a stick in the eye(or worse)should they fail? Leaders of winning teams encourage their people to take on huge challenges and let them know that theyre safe no matt
25、er what happens. And then they make good on their word. Only in such environments will people be bold. And only bold teams win. FOURTH, and finally, winning teams celebrate. No idea we talk about gives people trouble more than this one. Maybe it has something to do with the recession“How can you par
26、ty in times of bleak economic conditions?“but people stopped celebrating even before the economy went worse. Most leaders dont understand the tight link between celebrating small successes along the way and achieving the big one at the end. But its beyond question. Teams that get pizza when they lan
27、d a new client, or go on trips when they hit a sales milestone create a delicious dynamic. They teach people what it feels like to win, which is, well, a very good feeling. It makes people want to win more. In fact, they never want the feeling to go away. So they do everything to keep winning. We wo
28、uld call it magic, except theres nothing mysterious about it.
