Successful teams need freedom to act. A shrewd Leader allows his team a high
degree of autonomy.
Do you:
- appoint/rotate the Chair?
- let the team set the agenda?
- absent yourself from time to time?
- have robust performance measurement criteria?
- let the team make mistakes, even when its costs you money?
- allow the team to find solutions?
- encourage members to seek your advice?
- outlaw splinter-groups?
- avoid ‘shop-floor’ knee-jerk decisions?
- work around the team to get a result?
- involve the team in strategy development?
- keep yourself and the team up to date on internal and external trends that affect the business?
- work a well understood review programme?
- know which of the above are counter-productive?
A team is not infallible.
It will make mistakes and those mistakes may cost you money.
Are you prepared for this?
