The Science of Building a Successful Business Team

I‘m always on the lookout for articles with the potential to positively change a business. What’s your take on the following points I came across recently?

It’s very important to build a good team for your business, because you can’t do everything yourself, and you’ll need some great people working together in order to accomplish your goals for business growth and ultimate success. Here are some guidelines on how you can go about creating just the right mix of skills, character, and highly motivated people.

Have a roadmap for the future

One of the most important aspects of building a good business team is having a clear idea about where you’re going with your business, and how you intend to achieve your goals. Having those goals is important, but you also need to have a way of measuring yourself against those goals along the way, which means you need some system of metrics in order to identify whether you’re being successful or not. Establishing priorities will help everyone reach those metrics, and reminding everyone constantly about those priorities will keep everyone on the same page.

Make everyone accountable

Treating everyone with respect will only work well and hold up over a period of time, if everyone is held accountable for their specific roles and contributions. If some people are not in step, or consistently fail to meet expectations, respect will gradually subside, and the team will be weakened. Accountability is a necessity so that everyone understands their contribution is critical to the overall success of the business team.
