📈 Does Your Team Know Their Roles?

Use these tips to give your team an advantage.

The team only wins when EVERY role clicks.

Am I talking about sports or business?

Truth is, it could be both.

As a former D1 hockey player, I’ve experienced firsthand how sports mirrors business—communication, discipline, teamwork, etc. 

But one skill stands out above the rest.

Running a business has taught me how crucial good leadership is.

You MUST clearly define the roles of your team.

  1. Be open about what you expect.

Clear expectations prevents confusion.

  1. Assign roles based on strengths.

Put people in positions where they can excel.

  1. Hold everyone accountable.

Conduct regular check-ins.

When every person knows their role, things just work. That task falls on the leader.

YOU have to be the leader they need to succeed.

  • Support

  • Motivate

When roles are unclear, people start guessing what to do. Or worse, they do nothing at all.

Assign roles and trust your team.

A winning team doesn’t need the most talented people, but it does people who know the company’s mission and the role they play in it.

So, are you leading your team like a winning coach?

If not, it’s time to rethink your strategy.
