133: How to Build the Best Team for Your Interior Design Business WITH MICHELE WILLIAMS

How often do you consider the idea of a team in your business? Perhaps you are a solopreneur and think you work alone. Or maybe you have a huge group of employees and sub-contractors. Either way, and everywhere in between – we work as teams to get things done. On today’s podcast, we will look at the 5 areas to focus on for our teams to be strong.

Topics Mentioned: 

• Role

• Expectations

• Team Characteristics

• Communication

• Feedback Loop

Key Thoughts:

• When we are looking at the idea of team, we are only as strong as our weakest link. Michele (02:28) 

• Don’t keep trying to fit the round peg into the square hole. It will only cause frustration and will lead to a loss in income and sleep. Michele (04:34) 

• Not only do the roles need to be defined for a team, but the expectations for the work to be produced needs to be clearly defined. Michele (06:13) 

• The hardest part of team is not knowing where we are at all times. Communication is the key to solving this issue. Michele (07:49)
