Good example with the athletic coach. Any fan of a sport can recall when a new coach took over the same team, and that team just rocketed to a new level of performance. Especially if they have experienced a coach, a teacher, some ally that got them excited, engendered trust and helped them do better.

I love this comment @Neural Foundry : “I've noticed that the clearest sign of high-performing teams isn't just hitting targets—it's when team members proactively connect their daily work to broader strategic goals without prompting.”

“Without prompting” really speaks to what a manager has to do to create “organizational alpha.” Appreciate your insights.
