New Guard

Are you a team newbie or part of the old guard?

Is it possible to be both at the same time?

• Newbies: These have many fresh new ideas, but have knowledge gaps due to inexperience.
• Old Guard:These know the ropes, but risk being unable to see beyond them.
• Combined, “New Guard”: These have the wisdom that comes with experience, while actively nurturing and maintaining a fresh, “newbie” perspective.

How could you–and your teammates–aspire to be the team’s New Guard?
