\u00a0No one wants to follow someone to a bleaker future.<\/p>\n<p>This past week I had the privilege of speaking to a group of leaders in hopes of inspiring them to persevere during these challenging times. \u00a0After spending time together, I came away convinced not only was a breakthrough imminent, but they were going to thrive in a post-COVID environment.<\/p>\n<p>The basis for my thoughts were Pat Riley’s Leading Indicators of a Breakthrough About To Happen from his book <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/31mm5jL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><em>The Winner Within: A Life Plan For Team Players.<\/em><\/a>\u00a0 Slightly modifying Riley’s thoughts to fit their culture, the following are the <strong>5 Things You Need For Your Church, Business, Non-Profit or Athletic Organization To Have A Breakthrough<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The frustration of knowing great sacrifice and hard work , but not seeing the results.<\/li>\n<li>Deep frustration, but still a compelling need and desire to act on the behalf of each other and their customers.<\/li>\n<li>A hunger to reclaim dignity, pride, and honor in their selves and teammates after continual rejection and failure.<\/li>\n<li>An unflinching recognition that better days are ahead.<\/li>\n<li>Team ownership and leaders who have made significant sacrifices to their teams can withstand challenges more easily.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The following are the 5 reasons why I felt a breakthrough was imminent for this team based on the list above:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>This team has worked very hard, pivoted and shown significant innovation since March.<\/li>\n<li>This team deeply cares for each other and its customers.<\/li>\n<li>This team is hungry and desperately looking for breakthroughs.<\/li>\n<li>This team was one of the most optimistic I have ever encountered.<\/li>\n<li>The organization’s leaders were some of the most generous people I have ever met.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>When you look at the list above, is your organization ready for a breakthrough?
