WAYS<br />
TO EMPOWER<br />
YOUR TEAM<br />
It’s a firm favourite of many but micro-managing is time consuming<br />
and ineffective. Strong leaders build strong teams around them<br />
through empowerment and trust. Here’s a quick overview of how:.<br />
Tell people<br />
What you want to achieve<br />
and involve them in<br />
finding ways to achieve it.<br />
Set out expectations<br />
Ensure everyone knows what their<br />
role is and what part they play.<br />
Use positive language<br />
And plenty of enthusiasm<br />
and encouragement.<br />
Highlight successes<br />
And show the<br />
way forwards,<br />
learning from<br />
failings.<br />
Provide mentors<br />
in the form of<br />
buddies or<br />
more formal<br />
coaching as<br />
required.<br />
Make individuals<br />
Personally<br />
accountable<br />
for their results,<br />
you want<br />
a professional<br />
team producing<br />
professional results.<br />
Ensure individuals<br />
Have the tools and equipment<br />
and training required to carry out<br />
their role fully and to the best<br />
of their ability.<br />
Seek high standards<br />
And then incrementally<br />
raise the bar.<br />
Recognise<br />
And reward successes<br />
but be mindful that<br />
individuals have different<br />
ways that they will want<br />
to be rewarded and<br />
which will motivate<br />
them to continue.<br />
