Dependability

DEPENDABLE
Being a Team’s Go-To player
You know it when you have people on your team whom you cannot depend. Everyone on the team knows it. Likewise, you know the ones you can depend on.

The Essence of Dependability:
1. Pure Motives
2. Responsibility
3. Sound Thinking
4. Consistent Contribution

If you can’t depend on teammates all the time, then you can’t really depend on them any of the time. Consistency takes more than talent. It takes a depth of character that enables people to follow through—no matter how tired, distracted or overwhelmed they are.
