What would your team t-shirt say?

I asked a team to design a t-shirt representing their team purpose - examples of their work below. The exercise must have resonated as they took an action to combine their designs and actually get t-shirts made up to wear (not my original intension – but hey, even better!).

Why is team purpose so important? Well, without shared and clearly articulated vision, goals, priorities and narrative of the future, how can you be sure you really are all aligned, or wearing the same t-shirt?

Turn up the volume!

While out of the city over the last week one of things that struck me is the amount of noise pollution, we are subject too. My normal background hum from busy city roads, helicopters and construction was replaced by sounds of the sea, birds and insects. Spending time in nature is sooooooo good for us. The benefits of nature can be integrated into work – I have several clients who take their teams outside for meetings, or go for a walk together as a break.

To be continued...

Over New Year I planned to spend time sitting under a tree decompressing from 2022. I cut it short due to rain. The second attempt in February was washed out... third time lucky? So my 2022 decompression is in March (and credit to stunning Doubtless Bay).

Don't deprioritise time you need for yourself. You will serve others better if you invest in you!
