Entry 9-Building a Team

"Tempting as it may be, it is impossible to build an effective organization without delegating important tasks to talented and capable people.Its the only way to make a grand vision a reality"

"That means the only way to build such an organization is to attract , challenge and maintain as many people like Colonel Rowen as possible."

6. Report back and show your work, get feed back
7. Underpromise and over deliver

9.put results before schmoozing
10. Replace the voices in your head with positive action.

So above are some of the notes from the readings that I recorded that stuck out to me. Now we shall talk about them.

The main things that stuck out to me had to do with building a team and being the type of person that others can rely on. This meant a lot to me because I feel that since I have not found any business partners yet, my business has struggled getting off the ground. I know that if I worked a lot harder it would definitely improve but I have learned that I definitely work best when I have a support team and partners in trade. I do have my up-line, but I feel like if I can use some of the techniques I have been taught to gain partners that my confidence in my abilities will soar higher.
Another thing that stuck out to me is asking for help. Sometimes I am not going to know all of the answers. What I liked in the readings is that it is ok not to know everything. It mentioned delegating. That is a huge thing for me. I feel like that is one of my weaknesses. I know that if I was to start delegating more I would see greater results. I learned how to ask for help and what to look for in potential business partners.
