LESSONS FROM NATURE

Be an encourager

Some feel that geese honk in flight to encourage those up front to keep up the speed.

Team members should regularly communicate positively with each other while working toward a common goal.

Take turns

The goose out in front has the hardest job as it breaks up the air currents.

When it gets tired , it moves behind , and another goose moves into the lead.

By sharing the role, the flock can travel great distance.

Teams can benefit form the same idea.

Based on their experiences and skills , people can take turns sharing the leadership role.

Set a good example

When geese are on land , if something scares the leader, it might fly off.

The flock will then follow.

But if the leader remains calm, the gaggle will do the same.

Geese and people tend to imitate their leaders.

When leading , we must remember that our actions and emotions are passed on to our followers.

Like geese , when we work together , our burdens are lighter.
