Rituals: The Fabric of a High-performing Team
As illustrated in my book, Passionate Performance, our rituals create the fabric of our culture, and they are critical for defining connections within our teams. Once we establish deeply ingrained team rituals, we view them as “the way we do things around here.” We can create rituals around recognition, performance, accomplishments, service, learning, etc. Whatever form the ritual takes, it creates connections. Effective rituals connect our team members to each other and to the leader. Select rituals that fit your style and the chemistry of your team. It has to feel comfortable and natural to be effective.

Impact and Influence in Action – There’s More than One Way to Float Your Ideas
Influencing, persuasion and negotiation is a game of sorts. That doesn’t mean it’s not serious – think World Cup soccer and notice how much a game can exhilarate, infuriate and become the subject of national debate. As well as rules there are rituals (these are the accepted way of doing things) and one of these seems to be that we “float” our ideas to improve their acceptability rather than ask outright. Although you may value your personal style of directness, forthrightness and straight speaking this is a time, in my opinion, to play by the particular rules and rituals of the negotiation game.

What did you do this morning? Chances are you ingested some caffeine, (hopefully) brushed your teeth, and set upon your inbox before you even crossed the office threshold. Chances are also that you repeat this routine most every day. Daily routines or “rituals” are extremely common for the average working professional.
