Welcome to 10 Ways to Be a Great Team Player in Challenging Times.

Research shows that working well with your team members can lead to less burnout, more growth opportunities, improved productivity, better problem solving, fewer errors, increased potential for innovation and creativity, safer risk-taking, happier team members, and enhanced personal growth and self-awareness.

This is especially important in challenging times.

So, what's a "challenging time"?

  • A pandemic

  • Layoffs

  • Nonstop change

  • Economic uncertainty

  • Leadership upheaval

  • Work overload

  • Emotional stress

  • Competing priorities

Or anything that makes you or your team members feel challenged -- practically, emotionally, personally, interpersonally, etc.

But it doesn't have to be so hard.

In this course, you'll learn 10 important skills that everyone needs to be a great team player, especially when things feel hard or uncertain.

This is a great course to take on your own OR for your team members to take together -- and then discuss "how are we doing?"

By the end of this course, you'll have everything you need to start that conversation.

And it all starts with self-awareness.

In this course, you will learn how to:


  • Leverage the strengths of the best team you've ever been a part of (even if it's not THIS team)

  • Build trust with your colleagues

  • Find opportunities to delight each other

  • Communicate with clarity and impact

  • Listen with intent and to minimize bias

  • Be vulnerable and authentic (without feeling too exposed)

  • Help each other in ways you hadn't anticipated

  • Develop cognitive flexibility so you can bounce back from setbacks

  • Be positive when things feel negative

  • Assess where you're contributing most productively to the team, and identify where you need grow
