Things were even better in 2012: Earnhardt finally snapped a 142-race winless streak that dated back to 2008, and added 10 top-five and 20 top-10 finishes. He had arguably the best first 26 races of his career last year, hovering around first place in the standings for most of that time before suffering a concussion during the Chase that forced him to miss two races and ended his championship hopes. Earnhardt was second after the first two races this season before dropping to third in the standings after Sunday’s race in Las Vegas.

During that stint, he’s led Harvick to nine wins, not to mention spearheading two wins for Clint Bowyer when he was still part of Richard Childress Racing.

Norming, building relationships and working together. Performing, maturing in relationship and task performance. Adjourning, disbanding and celebrating accomplishment.
