    Building the Team — Practicing What We Teach

    Team Concepts has grown from two people to a team of seven—and that growth is challenging us to practice the same principles we teach organizations every day. In Episode 6, we pull back the curtain on the growth of Team Concepts and what we're learning about building an inspired team of our own. We discuss why great leaders can't carry everything themselves, the freedom that comes from surrounding yourself with people whose gifts complement your own, and why asking for help isn't weakness; it's good leadership. We also dive into our three Inspiration Styles—Visionary, Relational, and Supportive - and how having the right balance of each can make a team stronger. Plus, we share a preview of our upcoming Inspiration Style Index, designed to help people better understand what naturally inspires them and the unique value they bring to a team. Most importantly, we discuss a tension every growing organization faces: people or profits? Customers matter. Results matter. Growth matters. But if you're constantly sacrificing your people to meet the next deadline or satisfy the next customer, eventually the culture pays the price. Building an inspired culture requires slowing down long enough to invest in the people who are helping you build it. Because you can have a great vision, but you still need the right people around you to bring it to life. Subscribe for more conversations about leadership, culture, teamwork, and helping people LIVE inspired.
