TIP #10

Play to Team's Strengths

          When you delegate make sure you're assigning tasks based on the strengths of your team.

          Let's say you've got a task that involves interacting with the local radio stations. Not a good idea to ask your biggest introvert to take this on, when clearly this is a job for your gregarious extrovert. Save that wonderful and quiet worker for a behind the scenes role.

          Make sure you listen, watch, and pay attention to not only what each team member enjoys doing, but also what she's actually good at. 

          Here are some questions to ask yourself when choosing the right person for the right job. Does the job require

*         Someone who works better with people or with paper?

*         An idea generator or a maintainer?

*         A short-term or a long-term commitment?

*         A creative thinker or a literal thinker?

*         A veteran or a newbie?

          When you assign tasks to people, let them know that you thought of them for that job because you've seen how well they've done in similar responsibilities. Your belief in them will bolster their self-esteem and research has shown us that people tend to live up to our expectations of them.
