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.
๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐ ๐๐ญ๐ – but don’t just pawn off tasks, ask team members for input on what tasks they can do
๐ ๐๐๐ค๐ ๐๐๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ ๐๐ญ๐ก๐๐ซ – be inclusive and open about what are priorities and what needs to get done
๐ ๐๐จ๐ง’๐ญ ๐๐ข๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐ – provide space for members to explore and fail
๐ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ฅ๐ฒ – be clear and straight in your communication
๐ ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ข๐ญ ๐
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ค – establish a culture of feedback as an ongoing part of being on the team
๐ ๐๐๐ฏ๐ ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ – make everyone aware of the big goals and the context within which you are operating
๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ don’t hide anything
๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ซ, ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐จ๐๐ฅ๐ฌ – set everyone up for winning
Implement some or all of these and your teams will perform optimally.

We had a speaker cancel at the last-minute. Without missing a beat, The Keynote Curators offered several options to choose from. The replacement hit it out of the park. We avoided a potential disaster and looked good doing it. Thanks to The Keynote Curators.
