It’s easy to fail if you don’t work with the right team

Listen the first key point

00:00

There’s no finding a way around mediocrity if you are trying to transform an organization. An average team or plan might give you temporary respite, but you’ll end up with terrible results. The importance of working with a good team cannot be overemphasized. Your team members can help you achieve your goals by believing in your strategies and helping out whenever you hit a wall. They understand what you’re trying to do and appreciate why you’re trying to do it. They believe in you and trust you enough to be successful with your tasks.

Bad team members, on the other hand, will only lead you on and fail to deliver. No leader can engineer a business revolution alone, so it’s important to surround yourself with a great team. Although for you to attract the best people, you need to be a good person.

People will trust and appreciate you more as a leader when they like your personality and the strategies you put forward.

You don’t have to force people to accept your ways. Instead, help them internalize your strategies and end goals. Build a work environment that allows you to learn and lead at the same time.

Patty Azzarello has broken down how you can become a better manager through a management skill known as MOVE (Middle, Organization, Valor, Everyone). Being a manager is no easy task, and you need all the help that you can get. Instead of learning from experience, you can learn from the strategies and skills that Patty Azzarello has found to be quite helpful in building a successful team. In the subsequent chapters, these gems have been discussed, and you will find many ideas that will be of value to you.

second key point

The Middle is where your life’s transformation, or the lack of it, will happen

The problems you face during a change result from what Patty Azzarello calls the Middle. The Middle is the first skill, and it is where every important decision is made. One of the inevitable truths of the Middle is that it’s tough. It’s difficult and challenging for an individual or organization to stay focused and motivated to do new and difficult things when going through a transformation. The problem is primarily related to how you and your team will keep the focus and motivation to do the new, hard work every day over the next few months or years.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

An excellent concept, executed well. Headway can help you retain what you've read while introducing you to the essential core of new information. It's an easier way to stay inspired, and to be reminded of the mental tools you've learned

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

The selections are on point and the summaries are excellent! I listen while I walk my pup 🐶 and have in turn, ordered a few selections! REALLY loving the app, it’s layout, daily selections and features!

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

The app it’s so easy to use. I use it while driving or cooking and is great. I love the fact that the chapters are short, so you can finish them quickly. Very knowledgeable.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
