While many elements are more stable than they were a year ago, teamwork in itself can be an ongoing adventure. I thought it would be valuable to take a look at #TEAMS365 #1969 – Teamwork in Uncertainty – Comfort With The Unknown - POTENTIALS REALIZED
Today’s blog post gets us thinking about values. Values serve as anchors or a compass, leading the way or anchoring us when we need to make decisions, prioritize and focus.
In an uncertain context, being clear about our behaviors as a team is critical. As we go to explore our values, we may first want to consider what our values are individually. To do this, we might explore the following questions:
All of these questions will usually point to a value which is important.
Underneath the words of a value are the behaviors. What do the values look like in action? If I were to take my phone into the workplace and record behaviors, what would I see?
As a team, and especially a remote team, having a focus on values can help during periods of uncertainty. Even though the context may change, hopefully our values are not changing in the arena.
As a team, this week consider what your top 3 operating values are this year. What are you committed to, no matter what? Behaviorally, what do these values look like in action?
Best,
Jennifer

In an uncertain context, being clear about our behaviors as a team is critical. As we go to explore our values, we may first want to consider what our values are individually. To do this, we might explore the following questions:
- What is important to me?
- What are the things I will take a stand for?
- What’s absolutely essential to have in my work/life?
- What makes me angry/happy/at ease?
All of these questions will usually point to a value which is important.
