17 Qualities of a Teamplayer (from John Maxwell)

Notes:

Competent

The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.

Highly competent people have some things in common:

They are committed to excellence.
They never settle for average.
They pay attention to detail.
They perform with consistency.

Notes:
“Excellence is available to all living beings but is accepted by the few”
“Competent people focus their energy and efforts on what they do well, giving all they’ve got”



Enthusiastic

Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

People who are enthusiastic:

Take responsibility for their own enthusiasm.
Act their way into feeling.
Believe in what they do.
Spend time with other enthusiastic people.

One way to demonstrate enthusiasm with your teammates is to go the extra mile with others.

Notes:
“People can succeed at almost anything for which they have enthusiasm”
“Positive people are positive because they choose to be”
“Enthusiasm is contagious”



Prepared

It is better to prepare than to repair.

To be prepared, you need to think about the following:

Assessment
Alignment
Attitude
Action

Notes:
“You can’t just work hard, You have to do the right work”
“Courage has no greater ally than preparation, and fear has no greater enemy than this”
“The man who is prepared has his battle half fought
