Conserving Team Energy Enhances Resilience

What do teams that thrive have in common? We’ve found the two most important characteristics are trust and resilience. To enhance resilience, it’s helpful to think about resilience as energy. As a starter, here are some practical ways to conserve your energy:
1. Give team members precise and unambiguous feedback on what you observed and the effect it had on you.
2. Don’t procrastinate or waste your energy holding back – be proactive and take action.
3. Use positive and clear language, as hearing words like “but” and “however” will have a significant detrimental effect on the mood of those around you.
The result: you’ll enhance the resilience and performance of your team.
