Building and maintaining a successful team

 

As a business owner when you look around physically or virtually and see the team who have helped get through to this point.  So, what are the elements that lead us to have a successful team, a team that supported each other through the highs and the lows and still brought about amazing results?

Some points to consider for now and the future:

 

• Recruit to the values – get the right people from the start

 

• Provide direction and clarity – get people focused on doing the right thing, at the right time

 

• Keep communication lines open

 

• Create a common goal and celebrate wins collectively

 

• Take time to understand people’s strengths and play to those strengths

 

• Help people to understand everyone’s contribution

 

• Be supportive and not judgmental when things don’t go to plan

 

• Have regular honest conversations

 

• Value the importance of connection – allowing for social interaction and to build trust

 

• Take the time, time to notice and time to check in with people

 

• Let them know what you value about them as a team member

 

• Have fun together
