In this episode, I discuss the importance of fostering an environment in your business where team members feel empowered to take initiative and make decisions, particularly in busy or peak times.
I talk about why giving permission and creating psychological safety for team members is important for your business, and how it allows them to make executive decisions and show initiative. I talk about the significance of team members feeling comfortable to make decisions and discuss the concept that mistakes are inevitable, and valuable for your business growth.
I share some personal examples where my team members' proactive decisions have been both successful and unsuccessful, and talk about how to support your team members through the learning process. I highlight the importance of clarifying roles, decision-making processes, and boundaries to minimise errors and maximise your team’s performance.
