<a href="http://viral-money-machine.com/article/The-Three-ARTful-Rules-of-Dating-and-Team-Building/" target="_blank">Get Paid to Submit Article like "The Three ARTful Rules of Dating and Team Building"</a><br /><br />My mother always told me that if I wanted to Attract a good partner I would have to follow the rules of dating.<br /> <br /> Here are Mom's rules; there are only THREE.<br /> <br /> Rules of Dating<br /> 1. Always look your best.<br /> 2. Smile at everyone.<br /> 3. Be Honest and Faithful.<br /> <br /> An endeavor in Team Building is basically like dating. Hopefully it is essentially an interview process that will lead to finding a lifelong partner.<br /> <br /> It is okay to find, attract and be attracted to a lot of people, but you only want to commit to the ones that will provide a long term and mutually satisfying relationship. In that way Team Building is better than dating because you are EXPECTED to do it with a lot of different people. <br /> <br /> Not such a good idea with dating! <br /> <br /> When I was a young man my mother sat me down to talk about the birds and the bees. (My Dad was basically absent so I often got a woman’s perspective on these valuable life’s lessons; something for which I will be forever grateful). She started by telling me “you only get in life what you are willing to give” and then she gave me her RULES.<br /> <br /> I have already given you my Mom’s Rules for Dating.<br /> <br /> Here they are for Team Building:<br /> <br /> Rules of Team Building<br /> 1. Be ATTRACTIVE to the type of people you want to Attract.<br /> 2. Be RECEPTIVE to them when they Respond.<br /> 3. Be TRUE to the methods used to Attract them.<br /> <br /> This can be summarized as the "ART" of Team Building during the Selection Process.<br /> <br /> Laws of attraction simply suggest that we should visualize and think about what we want, need, desire and hope to achieve and we will Attract it . . .<br /> <br /> Once we begin to visualize (even profile) the type of people we want in our organization and on our team; when we begin to think and fantasize about what will motivate and satisfy these type of people; then, when we begin to do these EnterTraining things we will create an undeniable attraction that will pull exactly this type of people into our organization and onto our team!<br /> <br /> In short, we will be ATTRACTIVE to the type of people we want to Attract!<br /> <br /> We can then stop recruiting them and start to simply open the door and; Be Receptive to them when they Respond to our Attractive atmosphere.<br /> <br /> Finally, we must be True to the methods we used to Attract them in the first place and constantly re-commit to continuing to provide an EnterTraining and Attractive environment.<br /> <br /> <br>Lon Kieffer, RN, BSN, MBA, NHA, Six Sigma Green Belt., author of "Get Out of Bed and Go to Work!", Speaker, Consultant and expert on Workplace Culture Change and Generational Conflicts, gives seminars, keynote and plenary addresses, runs annual sales meetings, and provides Common Sense Consulting at: www.LonKieffer.com.
