Resources For Team Leads, Mentors & Coaches
Sometimes, your business plan includes the help and talents of multiple people!
If you lead a team or an office, consider this: some of the most successful mentor/mentee-type relationships stem from a mentor who is actively invested and interested in the career of the mentee. As a team lead, you are the go-to resource for your team. When you time block and set goals, don’t dismiss your coaching time or leadership time! Set goals for yourself that focus on helping the people you lead.
For Business Plans That Include Hiring
If you’re ready to expand your team or bring on an assistant or transaction coordinator, assess what skillsets are missing from your existing “roster” of talent. Write down what you don’t like to do, what you don’t know how to do, what you do know how to do but don’t have time for — et cetera. You’ve just written a job description.
For Business Plans That Include Finding A Coach
The most important thing to remember when looking for a business coach is to find one whose training, background and skills most closely match your specific goals. This person can help you strategize, pivot, stay accountable, troubleshoot and so much more.
