Episode 291: The Single Most Important Question You Need To Ask Yourself About Your Staff


Listen Later

Take a moment with me if you will and think about your staff.
Do you have a rockstar staff member? Someone who is your number one, most reliable member? And what would your business look like if everyone on the team was just like this rockstar?
What about your staff workload? Is it spread equally across the board, or do some members receive more work than others because of their ability?
Evaluating your staff members are an important aspect of moving your business forward. If you are done being a helicopter CEO and ready to step out of the business, there is one very important question you need to be asking yourself about your staff.
And this week, I am here to ask that question.
Biggest Takeaways:
Are you having trouble of letting go "bad seeds" out of fear of not having enough staff?
You only want to hire when you have the work
You are having trouble getting out of the field and focusing on business rather than the work
The fear of too many employees holds you hostage to mediocre relationships with your staff members
Evaluating your staff and asking the important questions can and will get you to a place of abundance that allows you to become the CEO you desire.
Recommendations:
It is not too late to jump into my FREE hiring group that has been going on this week. Yes, it started Monday, but all the good information is there for you to get caught up on. The live events are recorded and will be there to watch until Friday, May 20th. I filled the group with the most useful information you will need when it comes to hiring and building up your team members, answering probably all the questions you were thinking.

Hi there, I'm Bella Vasta from Jump Consulting. You might know me from CBS, NBC, Fox, Huffington Post, Entrepreneur, or maybe you've seen me speak on stage or read my book The Four Dogs That Every Business Owner Needs. In any case, get ready because you're about to get your hashtag Bella Butt Kickin' in this next episode of Bella in Your Business.
So what do you say? Let's get ready and jump.
Welcome to another episode of Bella in Your Business. My name is Bella Vasta, coming to you with a little bit of a sad heart today. I debated on telling you guys this, but you know, if you've been with me for almost 300 episodes, at some point, you’ve heard a soundtrack that we won’t be hearing anymore. That soundtrack is Rocco in the background barking because Amazon was delivering to my house yet again, or the pool man was here and he was really excited.
Rocco was 12 years old, and last night I had to make the really tough decision that I know many of you have also had to do—to send him over Rainbow Bridge. I was very grateful for my parents coming over. My mom came over and took my daughter out to go get a toy at Target, and my dad stayed with me. I told Rocco to go to sleep, and he was a really good boy.
For any of you who’ve had to do this before, I feel your pain. Rocco was there for me from 2010—right after I started coaching. He was there when I was dating a lot, meeting suitors, in my wedding, and when we brought Olivia home from the hospital. He was even therapy-certified at one point and had the best heart.
So, wow. What do you do? What do you tell the kids? I told Olivia the truth—that Rocco went to go be with Jesus.
