12 Ways to Make Yourself A Valuable Team Member
Recently someone came to me for advice in starting a new position. He wanted to know how he could set himself apart and make himself a valuable team member. I loved the question. It shows intentionality and purpose. I decided not to give him just a few suggestions, but to give him a dozen.
Here are 12 ways to make yourself valuable as a team member:
Be an encourager of others on the team
Embrace change willingly
Remain positive when others are negative
Laugh deep and smile often
Value other people’s opinions
Remain steadfast to vision and values
Be flexible with methods
Genuinely love people
Give more than required
Think critically for improvement
Have a servant’s heart
Never gossip or talk bad about another team member
