We often hear in the personal development training sessions that you are who your 5 closest friends are. Surround yourself with negative, that is what you will be. Surround yourself with positive, again what you will be. This works in the office as well. I have often noted that you can tell the quality of a manager by the people they surround themselves with. Insecurity breeds insecurity – and good team building breeds a healthy proactive environment.
When you consider your team ask yourself these questions. Are there people who will tell you the truth? Are there people who balance out your deficits? If you’re an introvert – do you have extroverts on your team? If you are a high energy influencer, do you have some steady people on the team who will just get the job done?
Personalities in team building is critical. The positive outlooks, the creative thinkers, the rule breakers, and the people who follow every rule all can work together for a balance whole in the office.
