In the same way, leaders get the most out of their teams when they raise the level of unity.In this book, Rob Ketterling explains that most teams function at the speed of agreement, which means they have a job description, but very few common commitments. The second level, the speed of vision, is about the best most teams hope for, but as they move faster and farther, they create more tension with each other. The top speed, the speed of unity, only happens when people are emotionally and volitionally invested in the success of the team, not just individual accomplishments. Rob's principles and advice will challenge you and inspire you. Hang on. It's going to be a fast ride!
