* This section is intended to be used as a guide. The best trainers will take
this material and make it their own, working in their story of self throughout
the presentation and pulling on actual examples from their lives and their
organizination or campaign.
Tell your 2 min Story of Self. You should integrate examples of you time on a
successful or unsuccessful team and what you learned from it. Use the Story
of Self Worksheet in the participant guide and the Barack Obama video to
help develop your example story.
Structure is everywhere
Structure is a good thing. It is often put in place to help things run smoothly
and help get more work done.
Review 3 types of Leadership
• The most effective leaders have always created teams to work with
them and to lead with them.
• Take for example Moses, Aaron and Miriam in the story of Exodus, or
Jesus and the Twelve Disciples in the New Testament.
• Even Barack Obama has a leadership team working with- Secretary of
Education, Commerce, Labor, Interior, Homeland Security, Defense,
Health and Human Services etc.
Trainer Tip: Feel free to choose other groups that will resonate with your
audience
What do bad teams do?
We have all been on teams at some point in our lives. Work team, organizing
team, sports team, etc. If you have had a bad team experience you might be
hesitant to work in teams.
1. The team doesn’t get anything done. They talk a lot but nobody ever
takes on a the responsibility for getting things done.
3. Team is less than the sum of their parts. The team members can in
fact get more done than if they work together.
A good team:
Audience Engagement: Who are these guys? (Referring to the Dream Team)
1992 Olympic Basketball Dream Team who many consider the greatest team
ever assembled, in any sport. It dominated the Olympic competition, beating
its eight opponents by an average of 44 points and exploding the popularity
of basketball across the world. But why were they so great?
DIVERSE PEOPLE: from different backgrounds and different
skills/talents
CLEAR BOUNDARIES: Everyone knew they were on the team. It’s not
a different, random group of people every time. People were on the
team long enough that the team learns to work together better and
better.
EXPLICIT NORMS: There are explicit rules about how you will work
together as a team. When you will show up to practice, when you will
work out, how you will communicate with your team and your coach.
Leadership Definition
• Overview of the Breakout session – what the learning teams will do for
the next 70 minutes.
• Develop Shared Purpose – this should be very specific to
your team – this is the what, where, who, how, when;
include specific and measurable goals.
Debrief
• Ask for 2 groups to share their shared purpose. Coach them through
how to make it more effective.
• Round robin of team chants. If you don’t have time to showcase all the
chants, use them as ice-breakers later in the training.
