Overview

Welcome to the Built for the Trades podcast! I’m your host, Dan Dowdy. Today, we're talking all about Team Dynamics and how they can either elevate or decline the performance of your business. High producers will not work well around low producers, so we'll explore how to define both groups and what you can do about it. We'll discuss the impacts of having low performers on your team and share strategies for developing a high-performing team. Whether you’re a trades business owner, a manager, or someone looking to develop your leadership skills, you’ve come to the right place!

Discussions

1. Define high performers by identifying their key characteristics beyond sales and work ethic.
2. Define low performers by recognizing negative attitudes and their impact on team spirit.
3. Discuss the consequences of keeping low performers and how they affect business growth.
4. Explore strategies for coaching low performers using clear standards and performance metrics.
5. Emphasize the importance of making tough decisions about team members for overall success.

Thank you for tuning in today! I hope this episode encourages you to analyze your team dynamics and take actionable steps toward building a stronger team. Remember, if you identify low performers, focus on coaching them up. But if they resist improvement, it might be time to let them go for the benefit of your business.
