Have you ever been Whitewater Rafting with a trusted team?
Video fun:
Or is there another daring, team-building exercise you’ve participated in?
I’m curious as I reflect on fond memories of Whitewater Rafting down the
Colorado River under the Royal Gorge with a remarkable Marketing team
several years ago. It was exhilarating and a real reminder to me about the
power of teamwork… Half-way through our adventure, we hit a massive
wave and an extreme rush of water. Needless to say, I almost went
overboard. If a team member hadn’t lunged forward and
grabbed my foot, I would have been flung out of the raft.
I remember this moment clearly as it made me keenly aware of the
importance of sticking together-- even amid the rapids—with all eyes on
board, guiding the team in the right direction…toward the goal.
Here’s to you, your teams, and missions...for the WIN!
