⚠️ ????? ?? ?? “?” ?? ????

You want more from your team but cannot seem to get optimal performance from each team member.

This is something I grapple with on a daily basis. Especially when a breakdown occurs, and they inevitably will. How do I get the maximum results from my team?

As a leader, I sometimes experience impotence in my efforts to pull the team together. This then snowballs into a vicious cycle of frustration and taking more on myself.

Below are a few things I learned that turned the tide and have my team be more effective.

? ???????? – but don’t just pawn off tasks, ask team members for input on what tasks they can do

? ???? ????????? ???????? – be inclusive and open about what are priorities and what needs to get done

? ???’? ??????????? – provide space for members to explore and fail

? ??????????? ??????????? – be clear and straight in your communication

? ???? ??? ??????? ???????? – establish a culture of feedback as an ongoing part of being on the team

? ???? ? ??????? – make everyone aware of the big goals and the context within which you are operating

? ?? ????????? don’t hide anything

? ?????? ?????, ?????????? ????? – set everyone up for winning

Implement some or all of these and your teams will perform optimally.
