Making Of A Champion: The Art of Significant Team Building

Learn Dan's time-tested formula that has successfully turned struggling businesses around, accelerated the productivity of government agencies, elevated the performance of military Commands and transformed last place NFL teams into Super Bowl Champions.

Yes, there is no 'I' in team - but teams lose! It's about winning and there are two 'I's' in winning representing: Independent individual preparation and Interdependent collaboration. The teams that win have the most 'I' players on them and live by Dan's Ten Commitments. Using entertaining and compelling examples and comparison contrasts between championship teams and last place losers, Dan teaches his Ten C's: Clarity, Character, Competence, Consistency, Competitiveness, Contribution (which focus on 'me') - and Cause, Chemistry, Conclusion, Celebration (which turn the 'me' into 'we') and T.E.A.M. - Together Everyone Achieves More - into F.A.M.I.L.Y. - Forget About Me I Love You.

Mindset Take-A-Ways: Building a winning team begins with the individual commitment of each team member to the up-leveled understanding: It is not enough to say, 'I will do my best.' We must succeed in doing that which is necessary to win; There is a difference between training to fight and training to win; Under pressure you don't step up your game - you succumb to the level of your training, preparation and practice - which means pressure is not something that is naturally there. It's created when you question your own ability. When you know what you've been trained to do there is never any pressure. That's why you train and practice so hard; Not every football play is designed to score a touchdown; There is nothing more insignificant than the half time score; you know you're a champion when losing hurts worse than winning feels good!
