How to Build a Successful Team, Part 3: Setting Your Team Up for Success 

Audio Player

As studio owners, we may think hiring more staff will automatically lighten our load and get everything running like clockwork. Many of us have discovered it’s not quite that simple.

Hiring great team members is just the start. You also need a thorough onboarding process to help each employee thrive. Consider the essential components with Coach Elle Kealy in Episode 646: How to Build a Successful Team, Part 3: Setting Your Team Up for Success. 

  • Share the blueprint: emphasize your mission, vision, values and culture 
  • Lay the foundation: thoroughly train the basics of the job and your tech tools
  • Provide the building blocks: explain both the how and why of your processes
  • Add the accents: share clear expectations, set goals, answer questions
  • Polish and perfect: assess your leadership style and adjust if necessary

For more on nurturing an employee even before they’ve started at your studio, read Never Lose an Employee Again by Joey Coleman. And implement the practical insights in Episode 646.

Catch you there.

With grit and gratitude,
Lisé
