Show Notes:

  • Entrepreneurs get their feedback from the marketplace, but your internal leaders may not get the same level of direct input, requiring intentional direction from you.
  • Great entrepreneurial leaders embrace The 4 C’s Formula®—Commitment, Courage, Capability, and Confidence—and continually repeat the cycle of growth.
  • It’s the responsibility of those in leadership positions to ensure their team leaders are continually growing, stretching, and expanding their areas of Unique Ability®.
  • Without guardrails and feedback, even the best leaders can go off course, which makes structured communication and open dialogue key.
  • While corporations tend to have established growth paths and feedback mechanisms, entrepreneurial companies often demand team members take a more proactive, self-directed approach.
  • Entropy, or the gradual decline into disorder, can take over if there’s no conscious effort to maintain uniqueness and encourage growth in your organization.
  • Resisting change is a warning sign of stagnation. Encourage your team to challenge the phrase, “We’ve always done it this way.”
  • Prioritize leading people over simply managing them; let technology handle inputs while you focus on providing direction and leadership to your team.
  • Create psychological safety for your leaders by encouraging open and honest communication so they feel comfortable sharing feedback and voicing concerns.
  • It’s also important that your leaders receive feedback not only from you, but also from their teams, so you can build a broader culture of trust.
  • If you want to cultivate Unique Ability® Teamwork, you have to put effort and energy into making it happen—encourage collaboration and welcome new ideas and input regardless of job descriptions.
