Many times in my career I was creating new teams (for new business). I recently came into an already developed team and client relationship. This topic is helping me see more than ever the need to BUILD TRUST and take this team even further than where they are today.
Thanks Cindy. There’s a big difference between building a team and connecting with a team that already exists. I wish you well.
Imagine what would happen when we realized the real power lies behind being the leader of ourselves. : )
Yes. It begins there. Thanks DJ.

What’s one thing you can do today to build trust? After delegating a task, don’t jump back in and start making suggestions. Trust the employee will do what’s needed.
Single point accountability. Who owns it. Simple but so often neglected.

As always, I enjoy you participation here.

Leaders are so overwhelmed with demands they quickly lose sight of the people work required to build trust and ultimately results.
