Watching a sports team at play is all about collective endeavour. In my view, there is nothing as magical as a sports team working well together. You may have experienced it, either as a team member or as a fan. The desire of any leader is to build a strong team.

The ability to build and lead high performing teams is an important leadership competency for an orga­nization of any size. It is especially critical in small-to-midsize business­es. Here, people must work closely together, wear many hats and work effectively across the organization to get tasks accomplished quickly enough to remain competitive.
