Having familial relationships with direct reports is perfectly fine, actually encouraged to build a strong team. HOWEVER, if that familial relationship hinders you from effectively managing your direct reports, it will become a problem. HUGE problem.. It’s crucial to decide what type of manager you are…. One that holds everyone accountable regardless of relationship (this actually makes an even stronger team) OR one that only holds certain ones accountable (this will destroy a team) Think on it

✨ Inclusive leaders are those who take into consideration and value all opinions equally, they are those who know that everyone has something good to contribute, even if it is difficult at times, to solve that puzzle that we are as a team. 🔊 Today I stop by here to talk about the colleagues who have it most difficult, those who among their characteristics, there is one that makes them different and unrepeatable, different and valuable, unpredictable and fighters... very talented people who are “labeled” because of their special characteristic, because of their difference. 🔝 Let's break the labels and trust in talent!

Are these attributes good? This is what I look into everyday. My little Vitra box, filled with things I use daily as well as pictures and tiny notes I received from my team members. You can see a lot of kind words but also one that may lead to think. It seems like I am seen as a committed and courageous person as well as quick-tempered and key position. Four really different qualities that all a good, I guess. 🤔 the only want that I am not sure with is “quick-tempered”. I believe this has its advantages and disadvantages. What do you think about these characteristics? 💡

We've worked with a lot of teams over the years and whilst every team is unique, there are a common set of traits and behaviours we often recognise in teams with a healthy dynamic. 💛 There is trust between team members 💛 Everyone knows what they are responsible for and there is accountability 💛 People collaborate to solve problems 💛 There is a clear vision and direction of travel 💛 When things go wrong, the team learn together and don’t criticise 💛 Team members can speak up and challenge how to do things better 💛 There is a culture of appreciating difference Think about the very best team you have ever been involved with. How did it feel? What was it like to be amongst? What made it that way? What was the mix of people like? Keen to share? We'd love it for you to share below what made your best team, the BEST team! 👇

You can't build an effective team without some key ingredients: effort, time, and empathy. If you stopped reading when you saw the word "effort", you should read that list in reverse.

When you lead a team, you have to create a belief around "why not us?" Someone has to win "Why not us?" Someone has to bring this product to market "Why not us?" Someone has to innovate "Why not us?" Create a culture where you believe that not only can you do it, but you can do it better than anyone else. Because if you don't believe it, no one else will either.

Managing a team is an ongoing opportunity to learn and grow. Here's what I've gathered so far: 👉 It's a balancing act. Not everyone will nod in agreement to your decisions. And that's okay. 👉 The power of connection is real. Don't underestimate the value of spending quality time with your team. Understanding their roles and lifting them up fosters unbeatable collaboration. 👉 Step into the unknown. Yes, taking risks feels like walking a tightrope sometimes, but that's where the magic happens. 👉 Trust is the glue. Rely on your colleagues, and watch your collective efficiency soar. Plus, it's a surefire way to make them feel valued and empowered. What would you add?

Building a successful team doesn't happen overnight. It is a process of evolution, where coherence and perseverance become the norm and an alignment of objectives is achieved. 🎯 Every great team starts with a group of individuals, each with their own ideas and methods. At first, it may seem chaotic and disorganized. However, with time, patience and dedication, something wonderful happens: the pieces begin to fit, skills complement each other, and communication becomes stronger. A well-formed team works with organization, coherence and a shared vision. The key is the commitment of each member and perseverance in the face of initial challenges.
