Action Tips for Colleagues

Leading peers can seem at times like herding cats. It may not be easy but it is necessary. Work on it!

Communicate your intentions and confirm them with your actions. In other words, do what you say you will do.

Listen to what others are saying, not what you think they are saying. Be careful to listen to the whole story before you draw conclusions.

Ask questions to elicit information and create avenues of inquiry. (Drop the prosecuting attorney act.)

Defend your positions but be willing to act for the greater good. Compromise is healthy for the team.

Lead by including others in your decision making and your action steps.

Be the go-to person for your team.

Look for opportunities to make a positive difference.

Focus on getting the work done rather than who gets credit for it.

Show no tolerance for the blame game. It is the surest way to make enemies.

Make your presence felt; that is, let people know that you are available to pitch in and help the team.
