On this episode of Listen Loudly, Prentice Howe shares a profound lesson about teamwork and leadership which he learned from his experience at the Hoffman Institute.
He discusses how a teacher compares the dynamics of geese in flight in keeping a team unified and motivated. Just as geese fly farther together when they support each other, we discover how viewing team cooperation through this lens can strengthen our own abilities as leaders.
Tune in to learn practical insights on how you can effectively rally your team with the same resilience and cohesion exhibited by the geese in formation, only here on Listen Loudly.
Hoffman Institute - The Hoffman Quadrinity Process®, founded by Bob Hoffman in 1967, is a week-long residential and personal growth retreat that helps participants identify negative behaviors, moods, and ways of thinking that developed unconsciously and were conditioned in childhood.
The Goose Story - The passage compares the flight formation of geese to teamwork and cooperation. Geese flying in a V formation conserve energy and increase their range. They support each other, taking turns leading and honking to encourage speed. When one is sick or injured, others stay with it until it recovers or dies. The passage highlights the importance of standing by each other, akin to geese behavior.
