Do I encourage collaboration rather than competition among team members?
Collaboration strengthens culture.
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller
Context and Insight
Competition inside teams leads to guardedness and comparison. Cooperation builds trust.
Why This Matters for Servant Leadership
Servant leaders foster unity so people succeed together, not at each other’s expense.
Personal Application
- Praise collaborative efforts publicly.
- Pair team members for shared work.
- Identify and remove incentives that create rivalry.
