Recurrent Energy’s Post

"A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business." When I started working with Sports Group Denmark A/S last year, a powerful message on the wall immediately caught my attention. It made me reflect: What else should businesses aim to create beyond profit? For me, a few things come to mind: - Human connection - Opportunities for personal growth - Contributions to the wellbeing of our planet and society - Inspiration and innovation - Personal wellbeing These ideas resonate deeply with the values at Sports Group Denmark A/S, which are brought to life not just in words, but in actions. Whenever I visit their office, I feel very valued as a contractor and can see how much they care about their teams and customers. Mikael Sloth invited me to design and lead a 6-month blended leadership journey, and it’s been an incredible experience so far. From the start, I could feel how genuine this company’s culture is—whether it’s through the way employees talk about their work or how external partners like me are treated: with kindness, reliability, and open conversations. We’ve completed the first phase: ✔️ A workshop on self-awareness and adaptability ✔️ Individual coaching sessions to deepen personal growth Next up, in the new year, we’ll tackle one of my favorite topics: Communication and managing challenging situations. To me, these two areas is where the "rubber hits the road" for leadership competencies. Through this journey, we’re achieving something truly meaningful: ➡️ Leaders who are more self-aware and adaptable ➡️ Teams that feel fulfilled and engaged ➡️ Growth for people—and for the business as a whole If you’re a leader or an organization looking to create more than just results—if you’re ready to empower your people and inspire meaningful growth—I’d love to connect. Thank you for this exciting collaboration, Mikael Sloth and team! #conciousleadership #leadershipdevelopment #coaching #Human Resources #effectivecommunication #conflictmanagement #adaptability

𝑩𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓 𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒊𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆 At CASCO Safety (Central America Safety Company), each of our subsidiaries take a break for a quarterly offsite. We take advantage to come together, eat, have healthy competition, learn, celebrate, recommit and recharge as a team. Some of the learnings I have taken away from these events and discipline. 1. 𝐒𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 Each event has different champions, so it’s not the same few always having to organize everything. People own their leadership roles and do their best to leave a lasting impression. 2. 𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞 / 𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬. What elements must be satisfied for the event to qualify as a potential winning event? Stick to the guide and it will be great. 3. 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐧. It’s a moment to lower the stress of the day to day. Respect everyone and create an environment of story telling and company legends. 4. 𝐃𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞. Many of our challenges are based on our culture elements and manifesto. How do you integrate your culture into fun learning challenges? 5. 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬. Bring a guest speaker or strategic alliance you may have to mix it up and allow the team to grow and contribute with other voices. 6. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬. After each segment or challenge, what is the takeaway? After the event, what is the takeaway? Consistently find the learning and we all grow. 7. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐛𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭. Part of the leadership challenge is to execute on a reduced budget. Our champions continuously find creative ways and impactful places to make the retreats memorable. To create a 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐲, take the time to come together as a team. What are you doing to create these moments in your company?

Team Spirit – create a bond between each other When we run a Dream Team Day for our business clients, at whatever iconic stadium, we always run a clip of Pep Guardiola getting interviewed when he first arrived as manager of Manchester City. He’s certainly in the mix when discussing the greatest managers of all time, so when he speaks, it’s certainly worth a listen! He talks about what every manager in the world wants – to improve the individual, which will then, in turn, improve the overall team. He says every manager or leader has their individual belief in how they want their team to perform. Time is always at a premium, but the first and most important thing he wants to create is “TEAM SPIRIT”. Pep talks about the need to create something special between each other, first and foremost. Team spirit refers to team members' enthusiasm, camaraderie, and motivation. It reflects the team's unity, shared goals, and mutual support. A high team spirit includes teamwork, collaboration, trust, positive attitudes, and a sense of belonging. Team spirit will lead to increased morale and motivation within the group. Once this is established, all the other parts will follow, and as Pep says, they will essentially take care of themselves. The manager's tactics and ideas will be absorbed and implemented far more effectively. Team Spirit is a related concept to “Culture”, but there are differences, and they work at different levels. Much like Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, they perform at a different level to just about everyone else! #TeamSpirit #Teamwork #Leadership #DreamTeam

Building Bikes, Building Skills: Lessons in Leadership and Teamwork Gratitude, humility, realizing that it takes others to help us succeed, and active listening are all great skills that we often think we know, but how often do we really apply them? Last week, during our Jack Henry People and Culture Summit, we had the opportunity to participate in a leadership workshop and a community service project. We were divided into teams and tasked with building bikes for the Boys and Girls Club. Each team was given a different set of puzzles to solve. Once we thought we had an answer, we took it to the judges. If correct, we received a bike part; if not, we were told, “That is not what I have,” and sent back. That key phrase was something many of us missed at first because there were several judges, each with answers to different puzzles. We had to learn the importance of active listening to understand this nuance. Additionally, our competitive nature initially prevented us from helping other teams, even though each team had parts of the puzzle that others needed. We had to break out of our silos and collaborate to gather the correct pieces and complete our tasks. In the end, we succeeded in building 12 bikes for the Boys and Girls Club and learned valuable lessons along the way. This experience reinforced the importance of gratitude, humility, teamwork, and active listening in achieving our goals. #Leadership #Teamwork #ActiveListening #CommunityService #Gratitude #Humility #Collaboration #PeopleAndCulture #ProfessionalDevelopment

Bouncing a basketball and bouncing ideas in office share the same playbook? Our recent adventure with Co.labx at the Padukone - Dravid Centre For Sports Excellence revealed just how much sports teams and office teams are intertwined!   Just like a winning team thrives on unity, communication, and trust, so too do successful workplaces. Every player has a crucial role—some shoot for points, some coach and manage, while others defend. In the workplace, each individual's unique skills come together to create a powerful team dynamic bound together by common values and the idea of winning.   Celebrating victories and learning from setbacks together is key. This experience reminded us that a strong, cohesive culture, where everyone feels valued and committed, is the secret sauce to collective success. Winning—whether on the court or off - comes down to leaning on each other, aligned efforts, and high-fives all around!    #TeamBuilding #Leadership #WorkplaceCulture #WinningMindset #Collaboration #SportsAndBusiness #Teamwork #GrowthMindset #Resilience #CultureOfExcellence

⚽ Teamwork Makes the Dream Work ⚽ I recently visited the Atletico Madrid stadium 🏟️, as part of a family tradition we have when traveling abroad to big cities—visiting the local football stadium. It’s a special way to experience the local culture and the magic of teamwork in action. 🌍 As a huge fan of Ted Lasso 🎬, I’m constantly inspired by the positive leadership he exemplifies, building trust and collaboration within his team. His focus on shared goals rather than individual glory is a reminder of how we should approach our own teams at work. 👥 It also reminds me of my children’s love for Bayern Munich 🔴⚪. They admire the teamwork, mutual respect, and dedication that lead to greatness. Just like in sports, businesses thrive when we collaborate, support one another, and work towards a common purpose. 🙌 💡 Here are some best practices from my experience on improving teamwork: ✨ Foster Open Communication: Encourage team members to share ideas and feedback openly, and listen actively. 🎯 Set Clear, Shared Goals: Align the team with a common objective, so everyone knows what success looks like. 🚀 Empower Team Members: Give individuals ownership of their tasks, and trust them to deliver results. 🏆 Celebrate Wins Together: Acknowledge both big and small victories as a team—it strengthens morale and camaraderie. 🤝 Provide Continuous Support: Be there for your team, especially during challenging times. Support fosters trust and loyalty. Whether you're leading a team, contributing to one, or cheering from the sidelines—never forget: Teamwork makes the dream work! 💪 #Teamwork #Leadership #TedLasso #BayernMunich #AtleticoMadrid #Collaboration #PositiveLeadership #FootballAndBusiness #SharedGoals
