Can I count on my teammates to support me and can they count on me for support when they need it?

Internal mistrust and isolation are poison that sap a player and a team’s time and energy.

F.A.T. defines the foundation of true teamwork and is the roadmap to become a high performance team.

Your “BS” drives the look of teamwork It all begins with leadership…the integrity, attitude, and passion to achieve a common goal

Attitude – a choice each day that makes a huge difference in our success Behaviors that display attitude 1. ________________ 2. ________________

What guides our decisions and actions? Focus Accountability Teamwork We are aligned to common goals. We have visible priorities. We have passion for everything we do. We know that accountability begins with personal responsibility. We understand our actions impact others. We take pride in our work. Trust is the foundation our team is built on. We support each other. If one of us fails, we all fail.

Players working in a supportive TEAMWORK culture are more productive and use more of their energy and skills to achieve common goals
