We can detect an individual's portrayal by 1) analyzing how the group's reception to the individuals messages and 2) how the group speaks about the individual. When the individual is speaking, Does the group support and believe the individual is coming from best intent... or Does the group assume the worst? Then when the group is speaking about an individual, do they support and lift up the individual or do they antagonize and push down the individual? Understanding an individual's portrayal within a group, whether in a social or a work environment, will give us a tell on their rank within the social pecking order. And understanding social pecking order is key to understanding the morale dynamics within a group.

Morale is the drive, the spirit that other individuals have to support our goals. With high morale, all objectives requiring multiple individuals will become streamlined. With low morale, these same objectives will continue to struggle obstacle after obstacle. Having a Morale Mindset means placing morale as a key factor in our decision making so that we can optimize for stronger results through improving individual performance. In the podcast, "Morale Mindset", we discuss ways to elevate morale in the people around us, through actual stories and tactical solutions.
