Building a strong and effective team with high performance in mind, and for a team to be effective, all members in your team must unite behind an inspiring vision and be motivated to bring that vision to life. They must share clear measurable goals and be committed to playing their part in the overall success of your team.
Here some of the key points towards building a strong and effective team:
1) Define your team goals & purpose
Via effective communication. SFI communication tools made available to you for maximum use. Be it Stream, PSA/CSA Team Mails, Team Mails, Instant Messaging and e-mails, all are meant to be used to create a solid, dedicated and well informed team of members. Teach them to do whatever they learn from Rules of Success, Launchpad and SFI Basics. As a good Leader, you are responsible to communicate all the important news and changes affected your team members in your team.
2) Define the goal and set expectations
Once the team is united behind a shared, a compelling purpose, outline the required tasks maybe in schedule with agreed deadlines and responsibilities. Remember, it has to be mutual, because we tend to forget that our downlines are NOT our workers. Make each of your team members understand their roles to play for everyone to achieve team goals, in turn each team members will achieve their target of the month too, by cooperating. Support them as much as you are able to.
You must ensure that frequent, open, honest and transparent communication is being carried out within your team. Encourage contributions, handle any conflicts in constructive way, accept and respect other team member's views, will ensure full cooperation within your team. Motivated and ready to go team!
3) Review and Rewards
You may consider reviewing your team’s performance through team meeting. It can be done via webminar. Or a one-to-one check-ins, to ensure your team is progressing toward goals. Finding it out by asking questions such as; How are we doing? What we have learned? What is not working well? How can we improve? What have we achieved so far? These questions could be related to your Team Co-Op, Team Advertisement, signing-up of new affiliates etc. Skype and Facebook are the popular ones for most Team Leaders to reach out to their team members.
Reviewing and monitoring progress allows for adjustments and improvements to be incorporated into team processes, along the way.
Now, once team goals are achieved, on regular basis, you recognize, reward and celebrate both team and individual performance. We can do it in FORUM, sending E-Cards, personal e-mails or communicate it via SFI’s Instant Messaging service.
By doing so, it will help to build higher self-esteem, morale and boost the motivation of the group to continue their hard work. Find the most appropriate way to celebrate. Example, a team lunch if all are from the same area or family members! Transfer of T-Credits could be another way. Ensure that your recognition is consistent and the method you choose inspires and reinforces the team members to continue their positive contribution to the team’s progress.
By having a great, effective and motivated team can naturally bring out leadership qualities in you!
