Hiring & Empowering Solutions
The ability to collaborate. Collaboration looks different for everyone, but appointing every employee a task in a bigger operation is a great first step. When your team knows exactly what to do, then any potential confusion can be avoided. There are tools that your team can use to make collaboration even easier as well. The Microsoft 365 Suite, the Evernote Project Management System, or Google Business (think Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Drive) are all excellent tools for working together as a team.
- A shared mindset that is open to being flexible. Break teams of more than 10 people into smaller groups because smaller groups get things done. When you have a team of 3-5 people, or fewer, flexibility has to be a priority for everyone. A team that is flexible is willing to listen and respect other people’s ideas, and change their assigned tasks to new and improved ones. If one person out of your team is stuck in their own ways, then it will limit the whole team’s opportunities and growth.
- A team that can communicate. Proper communication amongst your team makes assignments much easier to complete. This means that when someone is told by the boss to tell so and so to do something, it better happen! Most problems in a business occur when the employees are not doing their part in communicating with one another. If your team can do this, then you are set for success.
