 SOME TEAM LESSONS FROM GEESE  

When you start to doubt the wisdom of teamwork, heed these lessons from an unlikely source - a flock of geese:

As each bird flaps its wings, it creates an uplift for the bird following. By flying in "V" formation, the whole flock adds 71% more to its flying range than if each bird flew alone.
Lesson: Teammates who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they're going quicker and easier when they travel on shared power.
When the lead goose tires, it rotates back into the formation and another goose flies at the point position.
Lesson: It pays to take turns doing the hard tasks and sharing the leader's role.
In formation, the geese from behind hind honk to encourage those in front to keep up their speed.
Lesson: Sometimes team members need to hear a little honking.
Whenever a goose is sick or wounded, two geese drop out of formation to help and protect it. They stay with it until it can fly again or dies.
Lesson: Stand by one another in times of trouble."

 A SOLID REMINDER  

May I have the courage today
To live the life that I would love
To postpone my dream no longer
But do at last what I came here for
And waste my heart on fear no more

- John O'Donoghue
