Teams Soar When They Stretch

According to Livingston (2003), high expectations translate into superior performance.  Again, the expectations have to be realistic.  We should note that our team has a reputation for being innovative and game-changing.  Our expectations for our work are higher and more exacting than most, while still knowing that we make our deadlines and sometimes work needs to be better than perfect. We also have high expectations for how we interact with our team, where we expect to train, coach, and maintain a high level of innovation while developing personnel who will go on to lead their own teams.  

Our team members joined us to learn more and expect us to challenge them to continuously accomplish things beyond their comfort zone; they enjoy the personal and professional growth and opportunity.  The team expects to learn and grow from each task or assignment, knowing and trusting that we will not put the team into a position where success is unlikely.  

We also like to give credit where credit is due. When a teammate works on a project, we present it with their name on the cover and their bio in the appendix. We’re proud of the work they put together, and we’re proud that they’re such a diverse, talented group of people that can bring thoughts together that make clients say, “well, I’ve never thought about that before.”
