Synergy is not about my way or your way…it’s about our way!
Synergy happens when people come together to achieve common goals.
Synergy requires a few key elements to be present:
- Talent: Task specific strength and skill
- Diversity: Different and complimentary talents that overcome the inherent weaknesses of others
- Coordinated Effort: Everybody working together to maximize forward motion while minimizing drag
- Humility: Selflessness, which minimizes ego and enables coordination.
Great leaders create synergy within teams, recognizing that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, and thereby achieve greater effectiveness, efficiency, and results.
