When Rachel launched his new project, she was all in—late nights, detailed plans, endless passion. But her team? They showed up, did the tasks, and left. No spark, no ownership. One day, a team member said, “We know what you want. We’re just not sure why it matters to us.”

That hit hard.

A vision doesn’t inspire just because it’s big. It inspires when people see themselves in it.

Inspiring your team isn’t about motivational speeches—it’s about making the vision real, relevant, and shared. People want to be part of something that feels possible and purposeful.

So how do you get buy-in?
Start by listening. Share the “why,” not just the “what.” Connect the dots between your team’s strengths and the mission ahead. Let them shape the journey, not just follow it.

A vision becomes powerful when it stops being yours and starts becoming ours.

Today, ask your team one question:
“What part of this vision excites or challenges you the most?”

Because when people feel seen, heard, and connected to the bigger picture, they don’t just follow—they lead with you.
And that’s where the magic happens.
