Chapter 2Take StockAssess Your Togetherness Level
Togetherness is a means to an end—strong results and retention of great people, I would argue. But you may have picked up this book for a number of other very valid reasons. At the beginning of workshops, I usually have all leaders write on a card what they hope their Togetherness outcome will be and the benefit they think it will have. I get all kinds of thought-provoking responses, but some of my favorites include these:
- Balanced so I can do my job for a long time
- Consistent so my team knows what to expect
- Proactive so I feel like I'm moving the most important work forward
- Focused so I can make progress toward goals
- Intentional so I make thoughtful decisions
