Coach Jamy Bechler is one of my favorite people to follow on Twitter. When I saw the above tweet he recently posted, I knew I wanted to share the content with you. This originally appeared in Jon Gordon’s book The Hard Hat.
The following are 21 Ways To Be A Great Teammate and if you don’t follow Coach Bechler, you can do so by clicking HERE:
- Sweat More
- Remember WD > WS (Well done is better than well said)
- Choose to be humble and hungry
- Pursue excellence
- Share positive contagious energy
- Don’t complain
- Do it for your team, not for applause
- Show you are committed
- Never take a play off
- Hold yourself and your team accountable
- Treat everyone with respect and expect everyone to do the same
- Give all and take nothing
- Communicate
- Connect
- Become a “come with me” teammate
- Practice selfless compassion
- Show you care
- Be a loyal friend
- Love your team
- Sacrifice
- Leave the place better than you found it
Now do a self-assessment – how many of these 21 do you do as a teammate? And where can you improve?
