Belonging: The Ancient Code of Togetherness: The International No. 1 Bestseller

Product Information

We have the same primal needs to belong to a group that has a shared purpose and shared values that drive performance. Each new player is presented with his shirt the night before his debut and then asked to speak to the team in the dressing room after their first match. But this is a false economy: people will only thrive when they feel accepted and safe from the outset; we must offer true belonging before we have ‘proof’ of someone’s work or output. Throughout my reading and thinking about teams, I’m most drawn to the sense of belonging, trust, and unity that can be galvanised in a group or workplace.

This is a special tribe that you’re part of, but actually, if you were hearing day-to-day things from the guys at your own level, particularly if you’re a rookie or whatever coming in, let’s say actually this is not the type of place it is… Then you are going to have back into high anxiety mode, don’t you. He shines a light on where these powerful ideas are applied around the world in high-performing settings encompassing sport, business, the arts and military. The All Blacks rugby team is one that has strong whakapapa according to Eastwood, and this no doubt has helped them become of the most dominant teams in history.

Throughout the tournament Southgate has talked about history and bigger journeys, about his “tribal elders” – Sterling and Henderson, the Harrys Maguire and Kane. Tapu describes aspects of life that are sacred, prescribed or non-negotiable – in a workplace, these could be values, or even protocols that everyone must abide by. One of these is the importance of visualisation, not just to plan for things going right, but also for coping when things go wrong.

I’ve pasted the last paragraph from the book above my computer because I am hoping this book will never sit long on the shelf. A good insight to how to make cultural changes in a team environment with some nice examples of his journey with high profile teams. Some of the teams worn world cup, some of the teams went overseas for months and months and were unbeaten.I wish he had mentioned some examples of what DID NOT work as I feel that would have been just as if not more informative. I can’t imagine execs and middle managers romanticising about this year’s strategic plan amidst a sense of making a binding commitment to working together better. To be fair, the odd woman like Yuhui Chloe (ballet soloist) and Ali Riley (footballer) are mentioned but blink and you will miss the women.
