Do you have any insights you can share related to maintaining high team morale?
Be transparent: One of the best ways to support your team like we do at X Team Services is to give them the context and information they need to succeed. Keeping your team informed early and often, you ensure everyone knows exactly what the team is doing.
Do this by creating a great management team. We think all services companies need a great operations manager or sales manager to drive sales and grow your business.
Establish good communication practices:
Give your team clarity on where information lives and how to find it.
Lead by example:
Show your team you trust them.
Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?
I make every day a meaningful day. I do something that gives me a sense of accomplishment and purpos. Set clear, achievable goals to help you look toward the future with meaning. Every day no matter what we face in the economy or if its a pandemic just know you are going to see your business through. Do not give up and do not give in.
