‘Ultimate fulfillment and significance come from a lasting sense of joy and satisfaction, from fully living a life purpose centered on adding value to others.’

‘When you stop wanting to control people, that’s when you begin to empower them to take responsibility for and ownership of the choices they make and the actions they take.’

‘Don’t take things personally, and don’t let problems drag you down.’

‘When we push others down, we can’t help but push ourselves down. When we bring others up, we can’t help but bring ourselves up.’

‘In the process of giving we are already receiving.’

‘People are often too engrossed in what they are doing to become aware.’

‘Don’t be attached to the need to be right. If what you perceive as the truth turns out to be not the case, you can acknowledge it, let it go, and move on.’

‘You should … be on the lookout for teachable moments to ask direct and powerful questions that energize change.’

‘Don’t be too attached to your intuition, no matter how certain you feel; always be ready to let go.’

‘People can make adjustments to stay on course when they know how they are progressing toward their goal at any given time.’

‘When you focus on open-ended questions and broader questions, you stimulate ‘out of the box’ thinking and widen people’s horizons.’

‘People who lead teams can foster integration by acting on values, structures, processes, and people.’

‘For leaders, it’s imperative to shape the behaviors that impact the individual and group performance of an organization.’

‘The team leader needs to offer well-defined strategies, plan work meticulously, monitor team processes scrupulously, provide detailed feedback, and recalibrate actions and roles when need be.’

‘Team leaders become more effective when they are able to establish multiple relationships with target actors that are instrumental in generating team members’ motivation.’

‘Interestingly, achieving or surpassing team goals can give rise to over-confidence, and with it comes the risk of complacency and a drop in motivation.’

‘It’s important for a coach to be thoroughly familiar with all the roles in the organization in order to make collaboration easier and to get a different perspective of the team and the work being done.’

‘To trigger the drive to improve, a precondition is a culture of learning, sacrifice, and constant practice.’

‘What lies at the heart of motivational team coaching is the leader’s ability to enhance the cooperative aspect of social interdependence among team members.’

‘The greater the social interdependence in the group, the more positive influences there will be.’

‘The capacity to perceive and acquire the information needed to run the team also depends on the quantity and quality of the interactions between the coach and the athletes.’

‘Group norms are vital because they enhance team cohesion and improve performance.’
