Summary

Mark Wavle explores the question, "How do I help an unmotivated team?" in this interesting clip stating that he spots an unmotivated team easily by asking them their purpose in a certain project and the goal of the project. If the team doesn't have a clue of its purpose and the project's vision, it is unmotivated. He then inspires the team by helping them to create compelling products.

Takeaways

  • The best way to figure out an unmotivated team is by purpose, for example, if it's a product team, ask them about the direction/vision of their product. Most of them won't have a clue about the goal of the product, or their vision won't be compelling and inspiring. Mark inspires such teams' motivation by helping them create compelling products.
