Do You Have A Right-Fit Team?
You choose the mindsets that determine the structure and outcome of your life. This is why it’s so important to surround yourself with team members who think like you do and align with your core values.
Use The Right-Fit Team Member Scorecard, from Multiplication By Subtraction, to discover how engaged your team is. Give your team a score of 1 to 12 for each of the eight mindsets and write them in the first column at the right. Then, think about what scores would represent progress over the next quarter. Write these in the second scoring column. When you compare the two scores, you can see where you want your team to improve.
MULTIPLICATION BY SUBTRACTION
It’s time to say goodbye (to wrong-fit team members).
