Our experts break it down in this interview. They give you the steps to take to create your strategic plan and then successfully implement it. It’s not hard, but it may take establishing some good business planning practices. When you want to reach your business goals and create a sustainable business that makes an impact, utilize experts to set you on track to reach your goals.
Featuring Aileen Boyle & Kyna B
Our experts share their advice for women leaders and speakers:
Aileen advises “1- Get a benchmark. Make sure your team has a clear idea of what a great team looks like.
2 – Practise decision intelligence – Look at trends and data but ensure they make most sense based on your strategy, markets, customers and revenue model 3 – Know your pies – potential, importance, ease and score 4 – Be a client whisperer 5 – Relinquish control to take control – get a good team, virtual or physical to be able to delegate to increase capacity, else you will stay where you are.”
Kyna says “Learn to let go and delegate effectively! When you delegate effectively you have confirmed with the person you are delegating to that they are (1) willing AND (2) able to do the work. Ask questions like: Are you able to work on this with what you have? Do you have any questions? Do you need anything else to complete this? Are you able to complete this in _____ timeframe?”
