  1. Lessons in Teamwork from Wild Geese

  2. 1.     As each goose flaps its wings, it creates uplift for the birds that follow. By flying in a “V” formation, the entire flock adds 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew alone.

  3. 2.  When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of flying alone. It quickly moves back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front of it.

  4. 3.    When the lead goose tires, it rotates back into the formation and another goose flies to the point position.

  5. 4.    The geese flying in formation honk to encourage those in front to keep up their speed.

  6. 5.    When a goose gets sick or wounded, two geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help protect it…

  7. They stay with it until it is able to fly again. Then they launch out together with another formation or catch up with the flock.
