Build a Culture of Trust and Collaboration Part 2

Zero-Sum Game

Gain of one team is offset by the loss of another team
Winning or losing may be less important than the total relationship
Negotiation and compromise may help everyone “win”

Consider the following questions:

What happens when you compete against someone on your own team?
Who wins when the football center competes with the quarterback?
When is it important to win?
How can we work together so that everyone wins?

Negative Competition

Poisons interpersonal relationships
Destroys organizational effectiveness
Diverts time and energy
Destroys goodwill
Provokes anger, resentment and retaliation

How to Build Trust

Always tell the truth
Stick to your word
Do what is right
Do what you say you will do
Share openly
Put yourself “in the other’s shoes”
Make decisions as a team
Set goals as a team
Work together to achieve those goals
Look for common ground
Be open-minded
Ask for feedback and act upon it

Until next time...
