5. Sharing the Load.
When the lead goose tires, it drops back into the formation
and another goose flies to the point position.
Taking turns “paying it forward”.
7. The Whole Flock GAINS Extra Flying Range.
By flying in a 'V' formation the whole flock
adds 71 % extra to the flying range.
8. Out Of Formation
When a goose falls out of formation,
it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of flying alone.
It quickly moves back to take advantage of the lifting power of the GREAT Wing.
9. Encourage Those Up Front To Keep Up With Their Speed.
The geese flying in formation honk to encourage those up front to keep up.
We need to make sure our honking is encouraging.
Where there is positive encouragement, results are much greater.
Empowerment results from quality honking.
10. Empathy and Understanding.
When a goose gets sick and falls out of alignment, two geese drop out of formation and
follow it down to help and protect it. When the sick bird recovers they REFORM a Mini Wing
Stand by each other in difficult times as well as when we are strong.
11. Learn About Rejuvenation
Geese fly South for the winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is a reminder to take a break from the cold of winter and take a vacation to some place
warm & sunny to rejuvenate ourselves.
12. Learn To Survive In Group
Geese flock together for survival.
This increase their chances of not being eaten up by the competition.
13. Geese teach us to work as a team,
work together in unity,
share the hard jobs when it comes to leading, care for others on the team and
honk to encourage others.
