Title: Do You Have a Champion Team with a Champion Leader?

Subtitle: The Business Essentials Series

Author: John L Millar

Narrator: John L Millar

Format: Original Recording

Length: 48 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-21-15

Publisher: More Profit Less Time Pty Ltd

Genres: Business, Management

Publisher's Summary:

Developing a loyal championship team that is willing to stand in the heat for you, win for you, follow you and rejoice with you is the result of directed, well-placed and guided intention and training. It doesnt just happen. In fact look at a disjointed group of selfish employees who lazily hang about a workplace, trying to get away with producing as little as possible, and Ill show you a team that lacks direction and leadership.

This module is all about developing that champion team that will deliver, that will withstand difficulties for the sake of the business and for you. Its no joke that your team is only as strong as its weakest link. Have a look at the ones on your team who are underperforming. This is how strong you are - or arent.

In this module we will look at the five traits of a champion leader and evaluate the best ways in which you can adopt them so they become a daily part of your routines. We evaluate the best ways in which to apply these characteristics to your business and how to reap the results.

The five traits of a champion leader.

These five characteristics of a champion can be applied within businesses in two ways: as a standard against which leaders must be measured and as a standard against which all potential team members are measured and held accountable.

1. Commitment. leaders need to know how to gain commitment to a compelling vision and the strategies that are used to achieve it. This also includes investing the time and energy in creating that compelling vision and strategies and having the courage to ask for help in achieving it. This comes from leaders who know how to communicate in a way that influences their team members in a positive way. Its a way of communicating that shows how each individual team member benefits when the organization fulfills its vision and strategy, gaining buy-in from all.

2. Humility. Leaders must lead by example in setting the expectation of constant and never-ending improvement, and they show it by being open to feedback from all sources. This means more than just proclaiming there is an open door policy. It must be demonstrated by actually taking feedback and accepting appreciation for that feedback by saying thank you. There is no need for justification, explanation, recriminations or blame. Accepting comment and suggestion from everyone is one of the greatest ways to display your humility and concern for all.

4. Motivation. Motivation is more than just hard work and long hours. It means being inspired to take action even with difficult decisions and challenging situations. It means avoiding procrastination at all costs and refusing to tolerate things that do not improve the organization. And it means supporting the best efforts of team members.

Leaders must understand human motivation and apply the following assumptions in their approach: Everyone on the team wants to do a good job. Actions/decisions are always done with positive intent with the best resources individuals have available to them at the time. People want to be recognized for their contributions. People are motivated by intrinsic factors.

Publisher's Summary:

Time management is an essential skill for successful progress in all walks of life. We choose how we utilise our time. We can either allow time to control our activities or we can make time work for us by establishing priorities and schedules. Effective time management is about getting more done with your available time.

Effective time management involves learning a number of vital skills.

1. Goal setting - knowing what you are trying to achieve. This helps you to stay motivated and manage your time more effectively. To set goals you need to decide on your long-term, medium-term and short-term goals. The timeframes will vary for each individual, but future success and development will be seriously jeopardised without setting your goals.

2. Prioritising and getting the most done in the most efficient and effective way. Time is limited and valuable, so it must be allocated wisely. Discover where you lose precious time and how you can recover it to work better for you.

3. Planning your time. This means planning ahead and taking control of your time. Planning regularly allows you to achieve your goals, monitor your progress and prevent time wastage. It also means you can eliminate a lot of wasted interruptions by having timed sessions allocated to specific tasks.

4. Making the best use of your time. Time is a valuable resource that should be put to good use.This is where you get to redefine your time management and reclaim ownership of your schedule.

You will better understand how you can work more on your business than in it and see a clearer picture of your business and its progress. You will also finally find out why others can seem to fit more into their day while having a great life - work balance (notice the order!).

Title: How to Meet and Exceed Your Clients Expectations

Subtitle: The Business Essentials Series

Format: Original Recording

Length: 39 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-21-15

Publisher: More Profit Less Time Pty Ltd

Genres: Business, Management

Publisher's Summary:

The great belief in the 'loyal customer' who will stay with you for years and refer you to others and help out when times get tough and stand by you through thick and thin - is a myth! No client can afford to be so doggedly faithful. They have their costs and issues too. These days it's all about how you can be loyal to them! Once you realize that and stop blaming your customers for your own ups and downs, you'll go a long way towards accessing the right thought patterns that will see you through - in all economic climes.

Communicating with them, interacting with their problems, notifying them of changes and events in your business, recognizing their own events, letting them know you're thinking of them - are all significant and important ways in which you instill their regard for you and make them think more than twice before they do business with a competitor. Your insistence on excellence and consistency will reap its own rewards.

In this module we examine and evaluate the factors that contribute to the creation of binding customer relations. We look at several ways in which to keep the customers you have whilst attracting new ones to the fold. Some of these ways are obvious and some are hardly ever used - that's why they give you the edge.

Care for your customers. Look after them. Bring them into the family - and they will feel the commitment you have to them. Let's face it - their lives are bombarded daily with thousands of ads, commercials, marketers and calls to action. Yours must be the one they look for - or else.
