IBGR - RESULTS Radio Network. Everything a business owner needs to start, grow or exit a business. Come grow with us.

Introduction
“If you want to grow and become the best person you can be, you’ve got to be intentional about it.”

In today’s business world: 
  • Teams involve more people, thus affording more resources, ideas, and energy than would an individual.
  • Teams maximize a leader’s potential and minimize her weaknesses.  Strengths and weaknesses are more exposed in individuals.
  • Teams provide multiple perspectives on how to meet a need or reach a goal, thus devising several alternatives for each situation. Individual insight is seldom as broad and deep as a group’s when it takes on a problem.
  • Teams share the credit for victories and the blame for losses. This fosters genuine humility and authentic community. Individuals take credit and blame alone. This fosters pride and sometimes a sense of failure.
  • Teams keep leaders accountable for the goal. Individuals connected to no one can change the goal without accountability.
  • Teams can simply do more than an individual.

In order for your team to grow(market share, profits and effectiveness) two things must be visible in your organization:
  1. Teamwork 
  2. Personal Development

Team vs Individuals:
  1. When teams share credit for victories and the blame for losses —> This fosters genuine humility and authentic community.  
  2. Individuals take credit and blame alone —> This fosters pride and sometimes a sense of failure.

If you want to reach your potential or strive for the seemingly impossible— such as communicating your message two thousand years after you are gone —you need to become a team player. 

It may be a cliché, but it is nonetheless true: Individuals play the game, but teams win championships.


Why Do We Stand Alone?
1.Ego 
2.Insecurity
3.NAÏVETÉ: 
4.Temperament 

This is where we will focus our attention today. 


Show Objectives - The Why
My objective today is to help entrepreneurs understand that nothing of significance can be achieved alone.  In addition, individuals who don’t engage in constant and consistent growth can not and will not be able successfully compete in a global economy.  

Can a person or business have short term success without growth?  YES, anybody can have short success.
However for any business who is looking for explosive growth and long term growth, then they must be willing to engage in personal growth and development for them and their team. 


Key Issues
  1. Owner/Manager Perspective: (1) internal programs are available and participation encouraged, (2) external programs are available and encouraged
 
  1. Employee Perspective: (1) proactively taking advantage of appropriate training opportunities



What You Need to Do - The What
The first question you need to ask yourself:  Can My Team Accomplish the Dream?

Law of Mount Everest: As the challenge escalates, the need for teamwork elevates

How do you accomplish your own Everest? Ask yourself:
  • If you have a dream, you need a team to accomplish it.
  • How do you approach the task of putting together a team to accomplish your dream?  I think the best way to start is to ask yourself three questions:

1. What is my dream?  It starts here, your answer will tell, what could be?
Robert Greenleaf remarked, “Nothing much happens without a dream. For something really great to happen, it takes a really great dream.”

2. Who is on my team?  This question tells us, what is. 
  • It measures your current situation. 
  • Your potential is only as good as your current team. That’s why you must examine who is joining you on your journey.

3. What should my dream team look like?
  • The truth is that your team must be the size of your dream. 
  • If it’s not, then you won’t achieve it. 
  • You simply cannot achieve an ultimate number ten dream with a number four team.


How to Grow a Team:
1. Develop Team Members. 
  • The first step to take with a team that’s not realizing its potential is to help individual team members grow.
  • If you’re leading the team, then one of your most important responsibilities is to see the potential that people don’t see in themselves, and draw it out.  When you accomplish this, you’re doing your job as a leader.

Determine what your team needs based on the following categories: (Ken Blanchard’s Situational leadership)
  • Enthusiastic beginner D1 —> needs direction S1
  • Disillusioned learner D2  —> needs coaching S2
  • Cautious completer D3 —> needs support S3
  • Self-reliant achiever D4 —> needs responsibility S4
 
  1. Add Key Team Members
    • Even if you give every person on your team a chance to learn and grow, and all of them make the most of the opportunities, you may find that you still lack the talent needed to accomplish your dream. That’s when it’s time to recruit that talent.
    • Sometimes all the team needs is one key person with talent in an area to make the difference between success and failure.
 
  1. Change the Leadership. 
    • The challenge of the moment often determines the leader for that challenge.
    • If your team is facing a big challenge, and it doesn’t seem to be making any progress “up the mountain”, then it might be time to change leaders.  There may be someone on the team more capable for leading during this season.
 
  1. Remove Ineffective Members
    • Sometimes challenges are thrust upon a team, and there is no choice but to do the best you can. 

The Next BIG question to ask your team is: How Do I Develop a Team That Lasts?

Create an environment that unleashes new leaders


The Leaders Daily Dozen:

If you’re ready to revolutionize your organization, then I want to encourage you to start the process by adopting what I call the “Leader’s Daily Dozen.”  Every morning when you get up and get ready to lead your organization, make a commitment to these twelve power-unleashing activities.

  1. Place a High Value on People:
  2. Commit Resources to Develop People
  3. Place a High Value on Leadership:
  4. Look for Potential Leaders:

“Searching for Eagles,”
These are the top ten characteristics of “eagles”:
• They make things happen.
• They see opportunities.
• They influence the opinions and actions of others.
• They add value to you.
• They draw winners to them.
• They equip other eagles to lead.
• They provide ideas that help the organization.
• They possess an uncommonly great attitude.
• They live up to their commitments.
• They show fierce loyalty to the organization and the leader.

  1. Know and Respect Your People
  2. Provide Your People with Leadership Experiences:
  3. Reward Leadership Initiative
  4. Provide a Safe Environment Where People Ask Questions, Share Ideas, and Take Risks:
  5. Grow with Your People:
  6. Draw People with High Potential into Your Inner Circle:
  7. Commit Yourself to Developing a Leadership Team:
  8. Unleash Your Leaders to Lead
