Sailing - The Sport

Sailing, regardless of the size of the craft, like a NASCAR Pit Crew, requires teamwork expertise and skill to safely sail a craft smoothly through the water.

Four Rules of Sailing

Keep the People in the Boat – On the Team

Take care of your people.
Insure that there basic physiological needs are being met; maintain a safe and secure work environment; treat everyone with respect and dignity to permit a team-connection to the work group; create an environment of empowerment and creativity to build confidence and self-esteem; and lastly permit them to grow emotionally, spiritually and morally in a way that gives meaning and purpose to their lives.
Maintain a constant training and life-long learning opportunities to improve personal expertise and skills that contribute to organizational and personal visions.

Keep the Water out of the Boat – Protect Them

Prevent contradictory leadership from sources that disrupt the team and question the motive and legitimacy of the leader.
Support them, go to bat for them, take steps to build team-member confidence and trust that says, “I trust that you made the right decision and that you are working for the good of the team.” Mentor them to instill a personal and spiritual connection to you, the leader, and to the team; make them feel like a valued member of the organization.

Don’t Hit Anyone – Conflict Resolution

Conflict un-confronted is conflict unresolved.
Leadership must be ready and capable to resolve conflicts regardless of the magnitude of the problem.
Leaders need to be skilled in relationship building with empathy, exhibiting a caring attitude about individual success and professional growth.
Create team accountability practices that enable individual team members to resolve internal conflicts – resolve disruptive issues at the lowest level possible.

You Have to Look Good – Professional Appearance

External perception is extremely important to the success of the overall team.
Looking good goes beyond physical appearance of team members. Looking good means your professional appearance is sharp, neat and clean.
Team appearance projects a professional customer service attitude that enhances the team abilities to meet the needs of the customer.
This extends to your physical plant, which to the customer indicates your team and organizational pride. Each team member looks good because they feel that the organization is an extension of themselves – their pride, their professionalism, and their desire to deliver top-notch customer service.t high levels of success.
