The difference between success and failure is a great team. Here's how to inspire yours.
No matter how smart, talented, driven, or passionate you are, your success as an entrepreneur depends on your ability to build and inspire a team. A successful leader is one who can spur his or her team members to work well together towards a common vision and goals.
“You may not do all what you love ,but you can always love what you do.”
To inspire your team members, you'll have to talk to them, of course. Even though some of might hate meetings, but we should conduct short (seven to 20-minute) huddles to align and motivate the team. One effective way to begin or end a huddle is by sharing a quote. Here are 15 quotes from well-known coaches, athletes, business leaders, and authors that will compel you and your team members to work well together:
