Leading with Strengths

/0 Comments/in , /by

You may be thinking-really, should I focus on strengths, and not areas of development? My answer is, Yes!

The reality is that as a small business owner, you really need a team that is performing at their best. If they are not it means that you are going to experience challenges such as poor performance, a negative workplace culture and even a decline in customer satisfaction. And, of course, these challenges will land on your list of ‘must do’ items, meaning you will have reduced capacity for the things that really should be getting your attention.

So instead, what you rather want is a situation where your team is engaged. Where they are energised, committed, performing at their best and wanting to stay and grow with your company. It sounds like a dream. But, when you focus on strengths, you can make this happen!

In this short video, I give you some insight into how to lead with strengths.

How to make your company values come alive

Whenever a CEO comes to me with performance challenges related to their team, or they are wanting to grow their business, or even start a business for that matter; my first question to them is: What are your company values?

That may seem odd to you. You may be wondering, why start there? But, the truth is that company values are so powerful. Your vision tells your team what you are wanting to achieve long term, the mission refers to the work that your team is engaged with; but the values are so special because they define for you and your team, how you will do the work.

Your values should not be just a picture on the wall, or a document stuck somewhere in your share drive on your computer. It needs to be alive and well everyday in your team.

In this short video, I give you an overview of the importance of company values and how you can make them come alive in your company.

Must hear tips include:
