Team dynamics are another level of development that can help individual deficiencies. Most often, the team “pace” is a visual and energetic display of what is required. It is something that is not lost on a lot of people. That being said, every once in a while, someone doesn’t seem to get it, and they will be told very quickly what is expected of them. Witnessing something like this always makes me happy, because it is communication that is crucial to performance. If you say it in a way that deters or shames someone unknowingly, you won’t get the right response. But if you are able to clearly communicate in a way that appeals to their more primal side, you usually see an uptick in effort but also a great explosion because that effort is not well-practiced or developed. All of the above is useful. It sucks to be the weak link but in a more positive light, it means you have the most to learn.
