Guest Post – Home Business Team Coaching
A team is only as strong as their weakest link, so when it comes to team business coaching, your job is to ensure that everyone is on track and motivated to do the tasks at hand. Find out how you can motivate your sales team with coaching calls, and keep them happy and moving forward in your venture.
Many team leaders forget that their teams need a boost every now and then, particularly when you have new people. You need to set aside time and energy to contact each and every person on your team once a week so you can make sure that they are on track and headed toward team goals, and also to make sure that your team feels included, motivated, and cared about. Even members of your team that have been around for years could use a boost every now and then. As the leader of your team, these coaching calls can mean the difference between a vital member staying on board or falling away to some other company. It is your job to make sure that your team knows they are cared for and watched over.
Team business coaching comes in many forms: a monthly meeting, a personal phone call, or one-on-one delegation if you have members who are confused or lacking skill. Any time you reach out and touch your team member’s concerns in a personal way, you build a bond with your team that cannot be done by sales alone. You need to keep your team strong by checking in on them and giving them that pat on the back and simple encouragement that they deserve. You may not think it’s a big deal, but for those who feel like they are out of the loop or who have fallen through the cracks, it can make a real difference when you choose to reach out.
When you coach with team business coaching calls, you are letting your members know that you care about them both on the team level and on the personal level as well. A little bit of motivation goes a very long way in keeping people eager to please their team and make their team a success.
After all, when your team knows you care about them and respect them, your team will likely pay you back with hard work, dedication, loyalty and sales.
