The Myth Of The “ROCKSTAR” Employee

DAY 10: 90 Days. 90 Sparks.

We’ve all heard the legend:
The Rockstar. The Lone Wolf. The One Who Saves the Day.

They shine.
They grab attention.
They steal the show.

But here’s the truth:
Teams don’t need headliners.
They need a band that plays in sync.

The ones who don’t seek credit, but always show up.

If your culture worships stars,
You’ll miss the ones holding everything together.

Today’s Spark:
Stop chasing rockstars. Start building ensembles.
