New Year Resolution: Improving Outcomes by Improving our People

Most of us know how important it is to "develop" our people but we frequently don't know where to start. Perhaps even more frequently, we never seem to find the right time, or the right subjects or the right people to start and sustain a carefully thought out Team Building or Leadership Development plan. Our hesitations lead to missed opportunities and repeated management mistakes.

In fact, there is a direct correlation between improving your people then reaping as the benefit, improved outcomes for your business. John Maxwell, in one of his classic books, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership describes the Law of the Lid which states that "an organization can never grow beyond the character and capacity of its leaders". So if you want to grow your organization and achieve better outcomes and higher profits, you have to lift the lids that are holding you and your organization back from growth and increased success.

As happens every year - we make more and more resolutions - all well intended. Perhaps even more than well-intended, our resolutions are frequently things that we know we need to do and they are things that we know that if we would do them, our lives and our businesses would be better for the effort. Resolutions are personal things and we don't usually hear about many businesses making resolutions.

However, as business leaders, we certainly set goals and establish various plans for marketing, product development, investor relations, and of course training and developing our people. That's why in 2020, we at Triad have made a resolution to help our clients achieve improved outcomes by helping them lift lids while focusing on Leadership Development and Team Building as the basis for meeting and exceeding business goals and objectives.

Please feel free to contact me on my cell at 818-292-7156 to discuss how we can help you "lift lids" in your organization in 2020.
