About Leadership There are many benefits of having the presence of a good team leader within any project where everyone is required to work together to produce a specific goal. The contributions of a good team leader may include steering the team with new and innovative styles, encouraging everyone involved to stay enthusiastic about the project, help to keep the project on track and up to speed and many more positive elements.Finding ways to increase the productivity levels of everyone is also another trait of a good team leader. As the team leader is privy to a lot of beneficial information he or she can use this information to make changes to ensure better results are derived. Good team leaders also act as liaisons between team members and outside factors such as answerable superiors, higher management committees, share holders and any other outside parties that may have some vested interest in the team's progress. Basically team leaders are instrumental in the success or at worst the failures of any team formed. Therefore it is very important to pick the right individual to head the team as the team leader. Making a poor choice could leave the team without proper direction or guidance thus creating the possibility of failure even before the team is given a chance to showcase their capabilities.A more experienced team leader will be better equipped both mentally and physically to deal with issues that are part and parcel of any working group or team.Engaging team members' minds to be focused and competent are good but getting them to be passionate will be even better this will not only involve the mind but also the heart which in turn will create a connection that brings meaning to their work. When people are able to relate to their work in body, mind and soul a whole new level of vibrancy and effort is evident. In the quest of getting people to be passionate about what they are committed to several different areas should be addressed.Chapter4: Build a Leadership Mastermind GroupeFor some this is a unique phenomenon, while for others it is a time trusted way of doing things. Either way, the leadership mastermind group style has been around for a while and is here to stay as it has been found to have a lot of merits. Leaders getting together to work out problems and come up with workable solutions based to their various contributing expertise is the basis of this group's work ethics.Having all the necessary positive skills and successful leadership qualities, they are able to take on the challenges of providing more than adequate solutions to problems posed.Qualities such as trust, harmony, confidentiality, intelligence and a host of other positive elements are the foundation of such groups.The following are some of the traits that are evident in good leadership mastermind groups: Working together is the main theme of these seemingly elite groups. Comprised of individuals who are generally respected contributors in their own varied fields, they come together periodically yet on a consistent basis to help solve problems collectively. Besides this there is also the platform to have lively debates and exchange of ideas. This style usually contributes positively to the different perspectives that would otherwise not be realized individually. These groups usually have very clearly defined purposes for its existence. Even the membership criterion is clearly evident and almost never changed to accommodate others who may be termed as unsuitable candidates. The basis of these groups is trust and harmony which form the unshakeable foundation. This "safe" setting allows the discussion to be conducted in a manner where no information is considered taboo or not up for discussion.

There is a competitive advantage out there, arguably more powerful than any other. Is it superior strategy? Faster innovation? Smarter employees? No, New York Times best-selling author, Patrick Lencioni, argues that the seminal difference between successful companies and mediocre ones has little to do with what they know and how smart they are and more to do with how healthy they are. In this book, Lencioni brings together his vast experience and many of the themes cultivated in his other best-selling books and delivers a first: a cohesive and comprehensive exploration of the unique advantage organizational health provides. Simply put, an organization is healthy when it is whole, consistent and complete, when its management, operations and culture are unified. Healthy organizations outperform their counterparts, are free of politics and confusion and provide an environment where star performers never want to leave. Lencioni’s first non-fiction book provides leaders with a groundbreaking, approachable model for achieving organizational health—complete with stories, tips and anecdotes from his experiences consulting to some of the nation’s leading organizations. In this age of informational ubiquity and nano-second change, it is no longer enough to build a competitive advantage based on intelligence alone. The Advantage provides a foundational construct for conducting business in a new way—one that maximizes human potential and aligns the organization around a common set of principles.
