Developing Yourself and Your Team – Belk on Business – Episode 192

1) Developing yourself – you are the average of the five people with whom you spend the most time – all intakes should be evaluated as to alignment with core values yet open minded enough to challenge any preconceived norms or assumptions. Your associations will impact your outcomes.

- Develop yourself through articles, classes, conferences, webinars, podcasts and books

- Have an accountability group such as a mastermind or small business group which you are comfortable venturing beyond just the professional but also the personal (emotional, spiritual)

- Have a coach you can trust and to whom you choose to be fully transparent and willing to hold yourself accountable

2) Developing your team

- Don’t just develop their skillset but invest in developing in a holistic way to become leaders at work, at home and in the community

- Be transparent so they know how you see situations so to understand how you think (your paradigms)

- Regularly walk around and talk to your team

- Bring team members along to events, meetings, etc.

- Go along with team members as appropriate (from listening in on meetings to out of office functions that you are invited)

- Understand your team members goals, dreams, desires and needs

- Communicate the how, why, and who – this is how we do things, this is why we do it and this is who we serve
