How to Build a Successful Team

Over the past 10 years of trying to figure out how to build a successful team in my organization, here are some key points I have written that has helped me.

Once you’ve set a goal for yourself as a leader-whether it is to create your own organization, build a church, etc.  the challenge is to find good people to help you accomplish that goal. Gathering a successful team of people is not only helpful, it’s necessary.

So to guide you in picking the right people, I’m going to share with you some techniques I use to build my team.

1. Check each prospects history. That’s the most obvious step. What have they done, their experience.

2. Check the person’s interest level. If they are interested, they are probably a good prospect. Sometimes people can fake their interest, so arrange a conversation, and try to gauge their interest level to the best of Your Ability. To help you learn this you can also listen in on a skills call we do on Personalities. Email me for a copy of this.

3. Check the prospect’s responses. A response tells you a lot about someone’s integrity, character, and skills. Listen for things like….” Well I don’t have time to make the calls.” or ” I only have 10 min.” … ” It takes that long?”, “I’ll have to work two evenings a week and Saturdays?” You can’t ignore these clues. A person’s responses are a good indication of his or her character and of how hard he or she will work. Our attitudes reflect what is on the inside, and eventually our insides show.

4. Check results. The name of the game is results. How else can we effectively see an individual’s performance? By the results they produce.

There are two types of results to look for.

a. Activity results. Seeing what a person does on a weekly basis will produce the  Activity results we look for.

b. Second Result is productivity.  What is it that they produce not only in action steps and talking with people, but also in the following up with people. This is a major part of building. Follow up.

Here is an Important part of leadership: Be up front with your team as to what you expect them to produce.

Instincts play a major role. And your instincts will improve every time you go through the process. Remember, building a good team will be one of your most challenging tasks as a leader. It will reap you multiple rewards for a long time to come.

Juggling Multiple Streams of Outgo?

juggle

To Borrow a line from Dr. Phil, ” How’s THAT Working for YOU?”

The vast majority of Networkers who get convinced of the Brilliance of the idea that they need multiple streams of income wind up instead with multiple streams of outgo.

Even in today’s market while trying to build a home business, people are still buying traffic, leads and spending money they really don’t have. Do you feel that sometimes you are just spinning your wheels? If so, then you need to STOP! STOP the insanity of trying to work a J-O-B,  chase the kids, and work three or four online businesses that has you juggling yourself into debt.

Focus Until your Eyes Cross on ONE, yes ONE program or opportunity that has the support in place and the system for you to have success.  A system that allows you to be YOU, One that teaches you HOW to build A business. Then once this one is going strong, is when you would consider looking at another opportunity, Just makes sense to me.

Go Ahead and Argue with Me… I can hear it now. You’re Wrong, Judith. These internet guy’s make a fortune, and they don’t focus. Some promote dozens of Affiliate programs and make a good income from them. Yes some do, however the same question comes to you.  How’s that working for YOU?  Exactly. Think about it,  Before you go jumping into program after program, find out how many people you will need to have in each business to make the desired income from that opportunity.  Get Plugged into a system that will  Teach you  How to Think, Not What to Think.

To Your Success,
Judith May
