Episode Details

Building great teams is a critical element to building a great business, and so is teaching people to manage for results. My returning guest, Vicki Suiter, with Suiter Business Builders, is a best-selling author and an expert contractor business coach.

Today, she shares with us how to build teams that perform at a higher level, that view accountability with a fresh perspective, and that follow through on agreements.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Operating from expectations rather than agreements results in ambiguity and shortcomings.
• Vicki explains the difference between expectations and agreements.
• Make SMART agreements (Specific, Measurable, clear Accountability, Realistic, Time-Driven).
• The same principles of how you approach managing a well-run construction project are the same principles that, if you apply those in your conversations with people at a micro level, will result in getting a lot more work done.
• Practice building these principles into your communications and your work culture. A little extra effort on the front end will save a lot of time on the back end and you’ll get more consistent results from your team.
• Our willingness to take responsibility is one of the greatest gifts we have as leaders.
• Responsibility does not mean shame-blaming or fault; responsibility means the ability to respond.
• In Vicki’s upcoming FREE, LIVE webinar, she will be sharing a checklist for managing agreements with people.
• Vicki reveals the 3 key things she will be sharing during her webinar that will help you tap into your employees.
