That teammate who's just not pulling their weight? We've all been there. It's easy to get stuck in frustration, labeling them "lazy" or "unmotivated." But what if there's more to the story? 🤔
I recently worked with a college captain, Alex, who was completely exasperated by a teammate, Jamie. Instead of judgment, I challenged Alex to take a heroic perspective of Jamie – to consider why her behavior might make sense from her point of view.
This isn't about excusing behavior; it's about seeing the person behind the behavior. When Alex shifted her perspective, new avenues opened for empathy, curiosity, and genuine support. The result? A path to real connection and positive change.
Ready to transform frustration into possibility? Try seeing your teammates through a heroic lens.
