Bridge divides with team bonding. First, make sure that you and your top leadership don’t indulge in backstabbing or blame games.

Leaders need to understand that being authentically humble humanizes them, allows them to build stronger trust bonds, and engenders confidence & loyalty from peers and subordinates alike. While hubris can be a needed trait to call upon at times, to rely solely upon it as the foundation of your leadership style just doesn’t work.

Willpower is one of the least understood concepts, especially in the world of leadership.

By simply shaking someone’s hand, you create or strengthen your bond with them. My belief is that the present crisis will make us stronger by making us closer, more connected. The hand itself is a piece of anatomy that provides a window into who we are and how we live, including our habits, behaviors, professions, and so forth.

Or have you been taught to manage by objectives and metrics to monitor performance, and that bonding with your team members will be seen as a distraction at best or weakness at worst?
