THE LEADER AS A COACH:building an effective team

And t he lord said " Behold they are one people, and they all have the same language. . . And now nothing which they purpose to do shall be empossible for them "(Genesis 11:6) As a leader ,you will face the challenge of finding the right people for your team, communicating your vision, and developing them into a cohensive team: a team that not only posseses great individual talents,but also they work well together. Wow. It might make you tired just thinking about. Let's begin by looking at some principles of teamwork from Dr. Maxwell's book, The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork. We believe these principles are both universal and timeless: 1.The law of SIGNIFICANCE :one is too small to achieve God's purpose. 2. The law of the BIG PICTURE:The goal is more important than the role. 3. The law of the NICHE: All team members have place where they add the most value. 4. The law of CAMPUS : Vision gives team members direction and cofidence. 5. The law of the BAD APPLE: Rotten altitude can ruin a good team. 6. The law of the CHAIN : The strength of the team is impacted by its weakest link. Teams are what God uses to accomplish His purposes. He usually calls an individual to a vision, then that individual realizes the vision is bigger than he is. Eventually ,This individual recognizes he must become a leader because other people are needed to reach the goal. The vision is God -sized, not human - sized! Finally, the leader recognizes he must develop this group of people into a team that works well together. There is a difference between group and a team.(TO BE CONTINUED) you may view testimonies on www.ubuntebwandi.blogspot.com or email me at collinsampa@gmail.com or send an sms to +260961109549 if you want us to send a testimony.
