Lessons From Geese

Lessons from GeeseThis popular moving and stimulating video/DVD will give your conference or training session a whole new impetus. In just over 2 minutes it teaches five key lessons for every team in a moving and musical way.

Against the musical background of "Groovin with Mr Bloe", it shares dramatic footage of geese flying in formation to provide insights into the five lessons from geese.

Use this video/DVD as a motivational starter or closer at any corporate gathering. Use its principles as the foundation in a team building session. Use it over and over with every group in your organisation.

It will lift the mood and help you develop commitment to peak performance, both within individuals and teams.

The 5 Lessons:

  • Lesson 1: People who share a sense of community can help each other get where they are going more easily because they are travelling on the trust of one another.
  • Lesson 2: If we have as much sense as geese we stay in formation with those headed where we want to go. We are willing to accept their help and give our help to others because they are travelling on the trust of one another.
  • Lesson 3: It pays to take turns doing the hard tasks. We should respect and protect each other's unique arrangement of skills, capabilities, talents and resources.
  • Lesson 4: We need to make sure our honking is encouraging. In groups where there is encouragement, production is much greater. Individual empowerment results from quality honking.
  • Lesson 5: If we have as much sense as geese we will stand by each other in difficult times as well as when we are strong.
