Exceptional Teams have positive, productive people who don’t rely on
extrinsic rewards or micro-management to do their job. They have a sense
of urgency and have a ‘can-do’ attitude that sees them focus on solutions
rather than problems. Positive Productive People have great reserves of
physical and mental energy - and are efficient, aspirational and optimistic.
They bring positive energy to a team environment.
