Leadership is perhaps the greatest challenge in any organization. Is a leader macromanaging or micromanaging? Are your leaders guiding teams or doing all the work themselves? Do they effectively set direction? Are the leaders sufficiently coached on empowering teams? Do you regularly train people on selling, marketing, leading, or managing time? Do you evaluate how to create a better “fit” for your team through tools like DISC testing?
One key to becoming a great macromanager is finding and keeping great talent. This starts by understanding your needs and the composition of your team. Are the right people in the right positions to support your growth? Have you benchmarked your lineup against the best companies in your field? Perhaps you have a solid team that simply needs some additional training or help in goal setting, planning, project management, leading and following up. Are you managing (micromanaging) too many details…or are you empowering (macromanaging) your strong team to be successful? We can help review your needs and your team to develop a plan to ensure your team is firing on all cylinders.
An often neglected role is getting new hires up to speed quickly and becoming sufficiently knowledgeable in your business, your customers and your industry. Once on board, do you have processes to set goals and measure individual and team progress? Have you identified barriers and developed tools to overcome them?
Once you have identified, trained and empowered a talented team, the final step is to implement strategies and processes to retain your best people. Contrary to what some believe, salary is not always the biggest motivator for people. Research has shown that the association between salary and job satisfaction is actually very weak. So are you knowledgeable in the other more important factors that drive employee satisfaction?
