Once you have some experience and you’re ready to step up choose something small, yet likely to have an impact.

It has often been noted that a unified team can overcome all kinds of challenges and obstacles to achieve a successful outcome. Conversely, an unmotivated team can be set up for success, having every conceivable advantage at their disposal, and still fail to deliver. One of the defining factors of all great teams is that they are highly motivated. For a team to be successful, each team member must be motivated and working towards a common goal in unison with the other team members.
