G10 Glasgow: 5 Ways To Transform Your Team Into Super Stars

GLASGOW, UK, January 2014 – Everyone thinks training is a great idea but in the workplace, professional development often takes the form of pointless workshops that have much in common with school lessons. You’re bored the whole time and forget everything you learned soon afterwards. Here are some tips from the G10 team on how to train a great team:

1. Hire people who want to learn

You want people with a growth mind-set. People who believe they are capable of improving with hard work do, in fact, work harder and achieve more. Whereas a “fixed” mind-set--believing that you are good or bad at things--limits human possibility.

2. Focus on the practical

In any industry, training that deals primarily with the skills people use daily will stick more than training that doesn’t.

3. Practice--a lot

4. Show what good looks like

Have new hires observe your top performers and--just as important--make sure those top performers talk through what they’re doing.

5. Create a culture of feedback

Forget annual reviews (http://www.fastcompany.com/3019036/dialed/simple-direct-h...). You want daily reviews. You want reviews after every meeting. What went well and what could go better? We all get feedback. When it’s constant, it’s not as fraught, and hence everyone can be more direct. It’s very difficult for humans to be direct on things we’re not doing well, but when feedback is actionable, bite-sized, delivered quickly and repetitively, it can improve results.
