After all, there is no way that you can do it all, so you have to rely on your employees and co-workers to get things done. Your job as a leader then becomes to make sure that you give your team members the direction and the tools they need to get things accomplished; and to be supportive and help iron out problems when they arise. And oh yes, all the while hoping that they’ll all play well in the sandbox together! High-performing teams CAN accomplish great things, but the opposite is also unfortunately true ... dysfunctional teams can suck the lifeblood out of you and your organization!
