“How do leaders build a great team? The first step is to get to know your team. Proactive leaders will find many ways to connect and learn more about everyone they work alongside. When a leader shows that they are committed to helping others achieve their goals, they start to understand what motivates them. When leaders ask about goals, aspirations, and needs they will build a strong team that gets results. Be honest, communicate, have fun, encourage, coach, and train your team. This is how you realize the benefits of strong leadership that builds a strong team! Is your leadership strong enough to build a strong team?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
