MWM Episode 237: Building Your Team's Street Cred
MID WEEK MINI
Your team is doing amazing work - but does anyone else know about it? Join Ish and Sacha as they explore how to build your team's credibility beyond simply stating "we've been working on this" and actually spotlight the individual contributors doing the heavy lifting.
Key Takeaways:
- Move beyond collective "we" language - call out individuals by name
- Give credit even when team members aren't in the room - builds brand equity
- Not many people resist having others know they're doing a good job
- BUT - don't blindside them by asking them to present without prep
The Reality Check: Ish kept saying "we record and we edit" about the podcast, but Sacha called BS - "No, you do, and I'm happy for Ish to have all the cred because he's the one doing the work." Give credit where credit is actually due.
Why It Matters: It's good for you, good for the team, good for the entire culture. Why wouldn't we give out cookies more often?
