Nobody, in the year 2020, will be able to compete with everybody.
Everybody will win.
The team that brings everybody’s thinking to the board room, everybody’s thinking to the field, everybody’s thinking to the factory floor and to the showroom too, the team bringing everybody’s thinking regardless of their worldview, regardless of their age, regardless of their skin color, regardless of their dress, regardless of their quirky manners, regardless of their offensive behavior (at least offensive to me), and regardless of their unique differences from our culture, is the team that will be unified as ONE. ONE team that is BUILT TO LEAD.
This is the team that will own your space in 2020. Do you see it?
This kinda team will make the best decisions. NOT because they had the smartest mind in the seat of CEO. I mean head, I guess. The reason this team will own your space is simple and yet so hard. Because they have the most diverse set of minds and a leader who allows dissonant views to not only be heard, but actually encouraged them and mined for them – they will win. This team will embrace the real, hard, work of practice. They will practice, practice, practice. This discipline will unify and align them. This discipline will energize them. This team, aligned and energized, will innovate their way right on by the competition. This team will appear as ONE, even though in reality they will be a collection of individuals, teams, and leaders just as you are.
Everybody is gonna win in 2020. Only a few teams are building, today, toward a team where everybody thinks, everybody plays, everybody matters. What kinda team you building?
