Managing your Team: Create a structured training program for your team members. This way everyone is clear on their responsibilities and it will be easier to manage your team and review the goals established.
Leading by Example: As the leader of your organization, you should be focused on living by what you have established and set the example on execution, treatment of customers, and work ethic. This way your team will look out to you for your actions and not only for what you say.
