Knowing when it is time to grow your team is essential for maintaining both work productivity and long-term success. Instead of waiting for the ‘perfect time’ to expand, be on the lookout for these five signs. 1) There is Too Much to Do - If you and your team are always swamped and are missing deadlines, hiring a new team member will help spread the workload. 2) Quality of Work is Dropping - Making many mistakes and work and quality is declining? Hiring a new member will help maintain a high work standard. 3) You’re Missing Opportunities - If your capacity to handle more customers and tasks is low, hiring a new team member will give you more bandwidth. 4) You Need Specialized Skills - If you can’t do a specialized task, it’s best to hire someone who has the required specialized skills to do it. 5) Poor Team Communication - Team communication is sure to break down as your company grows. Hire more team members to reinforce the communication side of things. If you notice one or more of the above signs, it’s time to grow your team. Do not wait for things to get worse. #futurefriday #futureproofbusiness #teamexpansion #teamsuccess #findtherightworker #findtherightpersonforthejob #growyourteam #buildthebestteam #timetogrowyourteam

As an entrepreneur, asking questions does two things for you: first, it allows you to see and approach problems from new angles; and second, it shows that you do not know all the answers, and you are willing to find out. Never hesitate to ask the right questions. #wisdomwednesday #wordsofwisdom #askingtherightquestions #curiosityiskey #criticalthinking #creativethinking #neverstoplearning #freshperspective #learntoask #alwaysaskquestions
