• Personality conflicts
• Work ethic conflicts
• Work assessments not performed beforehand
• Goals different for each team member

“Charisma is the intangible that makes people want to follow you, to be around you, to be influenced by you.”
– Roger Dawson
Each person is born ethnocentric, or believing that other people and events revolve around them which is generally true for the first few years of a child’s life. The focus of activity for a growing child is inward. Some people carry this inward, self-focus into adulthood. These people, so overly concerned with their own well being in a self-centered way, never learn the secrets of influence. Successful people, who want to have the power of persuasion, turn their circle of activity and interest outward. They expand their centers to be as conscious of the world around them as they are of themselves. They develop what we call, charisma.
