You can never expect team members to invest in the team more than you do. A true statement that applies equally at work and at home. When a team leader invests in the team, the members will follow suit and reciprocate. While this applies in time of calm, its application and diligent execution is crucial in time of turmoil. So, when you find yourself in a challenging situation, go to this P.L.A.C.E™.

challenges Plan. Create a plan, with the input of as many of your team members as possible.

Lead by Example. Your actions and reactions will be followed by everyone on your team. Set your compass wisely.

Act. There is no substitute to action. If you do not act you'll react, and that is always a losing proposition.

Communicate. Let your team know what is going on. In times of stress, no news is bad news. Communicate frequently and generously.

Evaluate. Keep your finger on the pulse and make adjustments as necessary.
