Building the RIGHT Team by the Great Doug and Claudia Brown
Dear Reader,
You'll love this article by the Great Doug and Claudia Brown...
Make Your Venture *SOAR* by Building the RIGHT Team
*Build a Team - The Right Team (There is a Difference)*
Creating the *RIGHT - TEAM* is IMPERATIVE to your success...
A TEAM is comprised of people who can bring necessary skill sets to
the venture. A team is different from partners...
PARTNERS are financially and legally tied to the venture while team members are brought in to create and continue the process...
Team members can be employees or sub-contactors. These are people you can control simply because *YOU* get to pick them. Who will you pick? What kind of person do you want on your team?:)
You can use their services for as long as you like. If they don't work out as planned,you can find a different team member or you can find a place on the team where this person can be more effective
Creating the right *Environment* for the team is equally important
People will give their -> Best <-when they feel that their services
are being valued and that they are entrusted with producing a part of the success of the venture
Team members must have the same - values - as that of the venture
and they must follow the same code of conduct consistent with your
desired outcome.
They must truly want the venture to be a success, work well with
the other team members and give more than they are asked for in
their areas of expertise
This does not mean extra hours; it means working with *Heart and Soul*, working with the creative minds flowing, working with a positive mental attitude, and working together with the others so that all are...
$ => Winners <= $
Yes, that's right, everyone is a WINNER when the venture works!
How can you create a positive, successful team and have each
person feel that they are as important a part of the success of the venture as you are?
Study successful entities to find out how they treat their team members. Find out what motivates team members in successful entities to keep them
successful - is it money, power,trust, fear, etc.?
Thinking these things out before you create the team will help you
in putting together the right teamfor your venture
You should write out all the positions of your team and keep
updating it as you grow as when you grow you will need to change
out some positions on your team
Just like upgrading your peer group, always be open to and active
in upgrading your team members.
You must strive to place the right people on your team. This goes for
all positions you pay for, including lawyers, accountants, advisors,
sub-contractors etc.
Be clear on what is a must upfront and make the positions open as
specific as possible
If you are just starting out then make your team as simple and
complete as possible. Just be sure that your team members are
able to excel and have knowledge in the industry and direction
you are going in
Never pay a team member 100% upfront for their services as this always
gives them something to aspire to
Placing the right team members in the right place will make your endeavor ***SOAR***
Keep Moving Forward!
Success Comes by Placing One Foot in Front of the Other -
Making Your Plan a Reality...
