CORE ABILITY #1
SIMPLIFY
Take something that can be complicated and make it simple. (Some people take something simple and make it complicated).
“If you confuse you lose.” Donald Miller
CORE ABILITY #2
ATTRACT TOP TALENT AND MOBILIZE
You must have top talent to attract top talent.
Expand the capabilities of those you lead and turn them loose.
CORE ABILITY #3
PREDICT (Short term and Long term)
Predict where the organization is going and how to get there; work on the organization.
Be prepared to make short term plans (90 Days); long term plans (1-5 years).
CORE ABILITY #4
SYSTEMIZE
Following systems will lead to sustainability.
Systems to include are Core processes, Sales, Accounting, Human Resources, Budgeting, and Customer Care (i.e., My Facebook Live involves a 19 step process).
CORE ABILITY #5
STRUCTURE
Organize to reduce complexity and improve efficiency.
Be agile (quick to respond to changes in the market, what’s not working, mistakes, etc.).
I encourage you to evaluate yourself in each of these core abilities. In the areas you are weak, continue to learn and improve by hiring a coach, reading books and listening to podcast/Facebook live.
