Corporate America continues to encourage its employees to strive for excellence and success, but achieving greatness often requires a collaborative team effort. However, many individuals prefer to be recognized for their personal achievements rather than focusing on the collective success of the team. How can leaders encourage employees to value teamwork and collaboration over personal gains?
Seasoned executive leader Kyle McDowell has discovered through his various experiences that people want to be led with authenticity and transparency and be recognized for their contribution to making an impact. To offer his insights into creating and sustaining a culture of excellence, he created the 10 WEs, a set of principles prioritizing a WE culture at the center of a company's success. In this eye-opening discussion, Kyle expounds on some of his favorite principles, including WE always do the right thing, WE challenge each other, and WE embrace challenges. Above all, WE say what we will do and follow through. Kyle emphasizes that failing to hold yourself and your team accountable creates a culture of distrust, which goes against the second principle of WE lead by example.
