Hi Sonja,
Since you said, learn, it means it requires training. It means developing your leadership instincts or skills.
To be a good leader is to know how to lead and to become an awesome sponsor to your team members and to do this requires:
1. Understanding your team members and assisting them equally. What do i Mean? For instance, Not all fingers are equal. This means there are some that are financially handicapped to get their SO or need more help than others and some are capable

There are three areas that you should learn to be a good Team Leader of your group.

A. Learn to be a leader on KNOWLEDGE.

SFI has tons of information. It's not just enough to read them to be knowledgeable but you need to see the BIG picture of SFI business and able to connect every details that you read to that BIG picture.

The BIG picture are "The Streams of Income" that are available to us at SFI. Namely:

Hi Sonja,

Great question. My recommendations are the following:

1. Lead by example. Do not ask your team to do something that you are not already doing, have done or are willing to do.

2. As stated in the SFI Rules of Success ... work with the workers. Be there side by side helping them to build their team. Educate, mentor and help in any way that you can think of helping.

3. Find ways to add value to your team. Do not be ordinary ... be extra-ordinary!

One way of learning to be a good Team Leader for your group could be by asking yourself questions. Ponder and wonder around these questions. There are not always immediate practical answers. Especially for leadership it takes time to let this drift from your head to your heart, and back.
Look at these questions, and look again. Write them down, make them part of your daily routine. The answers will come, you will grow, you will know.

- How good is my own Team Leader? How did I experience

There are many attributes that make a good Team Leader.

When you receive a new team member, part of their beginning tasks is to visit their Sponsors Leadership page. Here they will be able to see what you do as a SFI member by the badges on your profile.

Show your dedication to your team by sending out good relevant information thru the team mail. While logged in, check on your team members. If you see something that they can improve on to better themselves, let them know.

Simple – lead by example!

Leading your team and becoming good at it, is all about your team members being able to duplicate what you, yourself have done, being there when they need your help and responding to their queries.

To equip yourself with good leadership qualities, never stop learning and take advantage of the many low priced E-books on leadership, which are available at Tripleclicks. In addition you can also learn from many other sources such as "The Rules Of

Hi ! This is what I would do:

1. Contact your team members daily! Make them believe in SFI!

2. Advice, motivate and support your team!

3. Show them opportunities and results!

4. Help when they fail, make them move on!

5. Reward the workers!

6. Help them grow, so you'll grow together!

Try not to lose your own motivation when some team members don't respond. Just like any other business, it happens. Not all people are meant
