“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”
Albert Einstein

Simply put, this is another way to say one of the most popular and overused buzzwords in business. Thinking outside the box, no matter how cliché, is a necessary and extremely effective way to fix problems and come up with new ideas.

Thinking outside the box  means approaching problems in new, innovative ways – ironically, its a cliché that means to think of clichéd situations in ways that aren’t clichéd.

“If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined.”
Paul J. Meyer

The key to success in all endeavours is to become goal directed. Goal direction makes it possible to focus your strengths and abilities on achieving your personal and career objectives. Goal direction is the foundation on which you develop a high degree of self motivation whilst harnessing the forces of your untapped potential. Progressive realisation of your goals takes you on a continuous journey of self improvement and high performance.

A key ingredient in improving performance and achieving success in any endeavour is the ability to set goals.

Genuine goal setting is the first step towards positive action. Goals may be imaginative and visionary, but not in the same sense as fantasy and day dreams. Goals are a prelude to action, a track to follow and a course to take. They are not a substitute for reality.

Whether you already have experience in goal setting, or it is a new concept for you, understanding the principles of goal setting empowers you to take control of your future.

“Individually we are one drop but together, we are an ocean.”
Ryunosuke Satoro

Effective teamwork is vital in order to reap the rewards of higher productivity, fewer internal struggles and a more enjoyable work experience.

Examples of the power of teamwork can be seen in nature with the migration of geese. As the seasons change large flocks of geese migrate by flying thousands of kilometres to their destination. These flocks contain hundreds of individual birds, each with limited capabilities to go the distance alone, however almost all of them make it to their destination.

How do they do it? The answer is simple: teamwork.

Scientists have identified that when geese fly in formation, each bird flapping its wings creates an uplift for the bird that follows. Together the whole flock can fly over 70 percent further than if they fly alone. This phenomenon can be considered an example of synergy, a concept closely related to teamwork. Simply put, synergy is the cooperation of more people or elements working together to produce a combined result that is greater than the sum of the results achieved separately. The word synergy is derived from the Greek “synergos” meaning “working together”.

When people harness the power of effective teamwork and synergy within their own work teams, they too achieve substantially improved individual and team performance, higher output, greater personal satisfaction, less stress, and a safer workplace.
