So, how enthralled, engaged, and energized was everyone on your last video call or webinar? Did you look at those faces? How can you, or anyone, reignite virtually any virtual team?

The team mojo sinkhole happened so fast. Isn’t it just insane? What started as the hottest trend (“Zoom Boom!”), has, in a matter of a few months, become one of the most dreaded COVID-induced realities, or should I say virtualities?

Zoom Gloom is real. Just in the past week 18 out of 20 of my clients chose to connect via phone versus video conference, when given the choice.

Every now and then science confirms common sense. Turns out that the stronger the Why, the stronger the Try. In other words, the more purpose, meaning, and mattering we experience, the more "all in" we become. The more virtual a team becomes, the less connected (to purpose, people, project…), and therefore less compelled we feel.

We are also compelled by authenticity. The more deeply real we perceive people and pursuits to be, the more committed, even loyal, we become.

So, what better way to reignite the Why and unleash the Try than by introducing and doing The Real Deal. It's a game changer. Forget the cheesy ice-breakers and introductions. Let's keep it real.

This refreshingly tactile, kinesthetic (learn-by-doing) card deck gives any team the ultimately inclusive way to pinpoint and honor what matters most (Why!) to each and every team member. It also red flags each team member's "DealBreaker", that one thing that makes them go on emotional, spiritual, and mental "mute."

Because it comes with simple, easy-to-follow instructions, you can do the Real Deal together, as a team, share your cards (what you picked and why), and connect stronger and better than ever before. The Real Deal reveals how to talk to, connect with, collaborate with, and team up with anyone and everyone, including customers, partners, and more. And, for ongoing teams, how cool would it be to have each person's Real Deal cards floating in their virtual Zoom background, as a way to say "Here's how to talk to me. Here's why I'm here."

It all comes down to this. How much more energized, engaged, and committed would you be to a team where you had the chance to fulfill your Real Deal, every day, and help others do the same? Can you imagine anything more deeply rewarding?

Heck yeah! You can bust through Zoom Gloom, have the ultimate high-performance team, and high energy meetings by employing and honoring the Real Deal. Why not reintroduce authentic and sustainable purpose into the virtual world? It's time.
