Another Monday, the start of a new week. How are you going to survive? Well Ben Sherwood, in his book; "The Survivor's Club", suggests people react in one of three ways when faced with adversity, like a Monday.
Ten percent of the people just do the totally wrong thing. They run amok when a challenge faces them, lose their mind, and create more problems than they solve. Perhaps your acquainted with someone like this! I've found in the right setting they can be quite entertaining, but absolutely useless when the pressure is on.
Eighty percent of us do nothing. We become victims of adversity and await the help of someone else. That's quite a majority, although comforting that more don't align themselves with the first group. What kind of chaos would that create? It is disturbing that such a large majority seeks the guidance of others before acting. Many times in a crisis, time is an important factor, there is no time for indecision. I can't help but ponder; is this group so large because we've become a "looked after" or entitlement society? No sense risking failure, someone will fix this mess!
The final group is way too small. Sherwood tells us that the leaders are a mere ten percent. Those take charge, get things done doers are the same size minority as the chaos creators. Has there ever been a better time for TEAM leadership development? One of the keys to success as an entrepreneur, is to find a need and fill it. Here's your need! Ninety percent of the population is looking for leadership! Could you ask for a bigger market? What a wonderful testament to the need for what TEAM has to offer!
God Bless!
