It\\u2019s a discussion of how championship sports teams became champions due to the efforts of an \\u2018unsung hero,\\u2019 that individual who (somewhat) quietly goes about their business while at the same time being the barometer of performance that everyone on the team wants to live up to. How do teams become great? It may not be from the obvious traits we tend to think of \\u2013 the most charismatic leader/coach who is a great motivator and communicator. In fact, it could be just the opposite \\u2013 that quiet person who is (dare we say) rather dull and boring. In his book The Captain Class: The Hidden Force That Creates the World's Greatest Teams, Sam Walker happened upon the surprising insight that what we thought as obvious simply wasn\\u2019t. The greatest teams in sports history were not great because of charisma, motivation or inspirational communication. There was always that \\u2018odd duck\\u2019 who stayed below the radar yet had an internal compass that wouldn\\u2019t allow themselves or their team mates to quit or perform at any level less than their absolute best. Who is this person on your team? You\\u2019ll gain some ideas from this podcast.\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nTo read more about Sam Walker's book\\xa0The Captain Class: The Hidden Force That Creates the World\\u2019s Greatest Teams\\xa0click the link. \\xa0You can also follow Sam on Twitter\\xa0and Facebook. \\xa0\\xa0\\n\\nIf you'd like to buy The Captain Class from Amazon, click the link.\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\n\\nClick here to check out our newest leadership development tool \\u2013 LEAD \\u2013 Leadership Education and Development\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nSteve Caldwell is an executive mentor and coach to managers and leaders who desire to excel in their career and become the leader others want to follow.
