HOW TO KILL A TEAM

It happens all too often. It occurs when the efforts of an organized group of League volunteers or team players crawls to a halt when one or more of the following killer tactics comes into play.

Have you ever been guilty of one?

1) Do not go to meetings.

2) If you go, you arrive late.

3) Criticize the work of organizers and members.

4) Get mad if you are not a member of the committee, but if you make no suggestions.

5) If you are asked for your opinion on a subject, say you have none. After the meeting, say you have learned nothing, or tell everyone what should have happened.

6) Don't do what has to be done yourself, but when the members roll up their sleeves and try doing their very best, complain that the group is run by a bunch of ego-trippers.

7) Pay your dues as late as possible.

8) Never think of introducing new players, and when someone else does, make that person feel as uncomfortable as possible.

9) Complain that nothing is ever done that interests you but never offer to make a suggestion.

10) If the team falls apart or breaks up, say you saw it coming ages before.
