High performing teams drive high performing businesses

Whether you have 10 members of staff or 1000, you need to create a high performance team if you want to make a real success of your business.

And I know of no better tool for getting the best out of your team than implementing the 7 keys to a winning team.

7 Keys to Creating Winning Teams

  • Number 1, is strong leadership – Yes, that’s you as the business owner.
  • Number 2 is having a common goal that everyone shares and focuses on.
  • Number 3 is setting the rules of the game so everyone knows what’s expected and how to ‘play nicely together’.
  • Number 4 is putting together an action plan that everyone is aware of and is following.
  • Number 5, you must support risk taking. Calculated risks, but risk taking nonetheless.
  • Number 6, 100% involvement and inclusion. That means communicating with your team on a want-to-know basis or an ought-to-know basis, not just a need-to-know basis.
  • And then finally, Number 7 is all about continuous improvement, both of the organisation and of the individuals within it. If you’re not improving while everyone else is, you’re going backwards.

Now, this isn’t an overnight fix, it’s more about professional, ongoing leadership using these seven keys as a formula for building high performance teams – high performance teams that contribute directly to your business growth success.
