4. Sound decision-making High-performance leadership teams arrive at sound decisions as a cohesive team by using decision-making methods (such as Choosing By
Advantages) that are statistically superior to other, more traditional methods such as pros and cons.
5. Bringing the outside world in The A/E and environmental consulting industry can be provincial. We seem to learn only from those in our discipline or profession. Few
people have practices for learning from those outside the industry. But high-performance leadership teams make a habit of engaging more broadly in the world around them and
they consistently innovate as a result.
6. The power of language Traditional use of language puts emphasis on facts, the representation of facts, building models, and communicating about the truth of claims. Highperformance teams understand another dimension of language where it is used to collaborate with others, negotiate with each other, and make things happen.
7. Solid assessments As much time as is given to decision making, at least twice as much time (and often much more than that) needs to be given to making assessments.
High-performance leadership teams know that if they are sloppy in making assessments, their decisions are no better.
8. Attentiveness High-performance leadership teams understand the paradigm of taking care of others while taking care of themselves. They get the nuance between being
selfless and being attentive. They produce bigger results by garnering the support of others rather than throwing themselves on grenades.
9. Reliable commitments Most of us are so interested in getting our requests satisfied that we latch on to the first utterances of a would-be performer, thinking we got the
promise we were looking for. All too often we receive just the opposite. The individual is trying not to promise, but doing a very bad job even of that. High-performance teams
master the skill and teach it to others, leading to increased success working not only in the business, but on it as well.
10. Ability to produce gratitude High-performance teams routinely produce gratitude in the course of doing client work and cooperating with others. They instill a culture of
commitment in their working relationships, allowing them to focus on what they are building together while reducing the stress associated with attempting to balance trade-offs of
individual agendas and interests.
Get hearts and heads in a good place and great things will follow.
