Business Owners: 8 Keys To A Winning Team
Owning a business should give you more life, not less. If you're not getting what you should from your business, now's the time to take action. - Coach Mike
As an entrepreneur, you understand the importance of building a winning team. Your TEAM is the engine that drives your business forward, turning your vision into reality.
Over my 15 years of experience running various businesses, I've discovered eight keys that have consistently helped me—and could help you—double sales and profits while reducing working hours within 12 to 18 months.
NOTE: I am using these strategies RIGHT now to help other business owners accelerate results...so I KNOW they still work.
The best part? Implementing these eight keys can lead to better results for your business, too. Let's dive in and explore each one, and remember, you can get a PDF copy of my PowerPoint AND a special bonus offer, at the end of this post.
But by ALL means...watch the video. It includes the details uou need.
In the meantime, here is a summary of SOME of the 8 Keys...
1. Strong, Trusted Leadership
Leadership is more than a buzzword; it's the cornerstone of a successful team. To lead effectively, you must be trustworthy and clear about your personal and business goals. Your team needs to see that you're consistent, value-driven, and committed to driving growth. Remember, a leader's actions speak louder than words.
2. Communicate a Clear Vision and Destination
People thrive when they know where they're headed. Share your company's goals and milestones regularly, and ensure that every team member understands their role in achieving them. Make the vision meaningful, and always address the WIFM (What's In It For Me) factor for your employees and customers alike.
3. Establish Clear Values and Rules of the Game
Your company's values are the guiding principles that shape your culture and decision-making processes. Take the time to define these values and communicate them clearly to your team. This clarity helps everyone understand the "rules of the game" and aligns their actions with the company's vision.
4. Set Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Goals
To win the week, you must first win the day. Set specific, achievable goals for your team and the business. Foster a culture of accountability and coaching to support continuous improvement. A clear focus on goals can lead to significant productivity gains.
5. Great Recruiting and Onboarding
The right team members can make all the difference. Craft job ads that attract the best candidates and clearly outline the expectations. Implement a thorough onboarding process to set new hires up for success. And when necessary, offboard with respect and dignity.
6. Support Reasonable Risk-Taking
Empower your team to take calculated risks within defined parameters. This encourages innovation and ownership of their work. Clearly communicate the boundaries, such as financial limits or customer satisfaction concerns, but allow your team the freedom to navigate within them.
7. Team Involvement and Continuous Training
Create an environment where feedback flows upwards, and team members are involved in decision-making. Invest in continuous training and development tailored to your team's career aspirations and your business needs. This investment pays dividends in engagement and expertise.
8. Development
Encourage your team to grow and develop their skills. Identify gaps in knowledge and provide resources to bridge them. Whether through in-house training or external courses, ensure that learning translates into improved performance for both the individual and the company.
Owning a business should enrich your life, not detract from it. If you're not seeing the results you want, it's time to take action. Assess your company against these eight keys and see where you can improve.
