This weekend's quote comes from Antoine De Saint-Exupery who wrote "If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people together to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea".
This quote gets us thinking about the deeper layers of motivation and drivers. What are the things that shape actions in your team. To do lists, or values? A yearning for impact, or checking it off. The topic of capacity building is one that I work around every day. Many times the conversations we have do not yield immediate surface results, but have the impact of making a shift in the longer term, under the water line.
What is creating passion, and drive for your team right now? How can you give people an opportunity to connect more to what is below the water line?
Have a great weekend,
Jennifer
