LEADERSHIP LESSONS STANDING ON A BATHROOM SCALE

​FOOLPROOFING YOUR REMOTE TEAM GOALS

​LEADERSHIP LESSONS STANDING ON A BATHROOM SCALE 

If you can't measure it, you can't improve it. #PeterDrucker, #EricMiller, #newmindsetacademy
As it turns out, the new dryer that I recently purchased was not shrinking all of my clothes after all. I consider myself to be a person that lives a healthy lifestyle. I don’t smoke or drink alcohol. I eat organic foods and love to ride my bicycles. But something was definitely wrong because my clothes were feeling tight.
 
I decided to brush off the dust and replace the batteries in my bathroom scale. As I was staring down at the digital readout, I could see the effects of having those extra pieces of cheesecake and the change in my workouts. I received raw and immediate feedback on what was going on. I suddenly had clarity of why my clothes were feeling tighter, and I had to face the facts. My new dryer wasn’t ruining my clothes, I was getting fat!

 
One of my favorite management consultants is Peter Drucker. As a methodical thinker, I appreciate his legendary work in helping organizations measure what’s working and what isn’t. One of his famous quotes came to mind recently.

"If you can't measure it, you can't improve it."

TWO STEPS IN FOOLPROOFING REMOTE TEAM GOALS

One of the biggest challenges facing leaders of remote workers today is effectively communicating in meaningful ways and managing projects. It becomes mission-critical to measure what’s working and what isn’t.
 
Fast, accurate, and dependable feedback gave me the clarity that I needed when I stepped on the bathroom scale. Measuring communication of mission-sensitive tasks with remote team members will give clarity in how your business systems are performing. Without having an effective feedback loop you can make inaccurate conclusions like I did when I assumed that my new dryer was shrinking all of my clothes.

​FOOLPROOF TEAM GOALS – STEP ONE: 
​CREATE A SUCCESS MAP 

Don’t get attached to a particular activity, remain fluid in your process. Measure the effectiveness and pivot when necessary, MySuccessBlueprint.us
In times like these, the most important thing we can do is to be clear with our remote workers on what to do next. In most cases, measurement is crucial for improvement. As effective leaders, we can best help our remote teams by creating a map that will guide them on what to do next.
 
Creating a success blueprint will enable you to align individual goals with organizational goals. Having this new clarity will go a long way in restoring lost confidence and shattering limiting beliefs. This will create fertile ground for the growth of interdependent teams that function with magical performance.
 
Your remote team will soon be clear about their assignments, timeframes to complete the mission, and most importantly they will know what to do next in challenging times.
 
Become an uncommon leader that is honest and hopeful, realistic, reassuring, candid, and clear. Learn how to effectively communicate your energy with your remote team members.
