Summary
Let's talk about the #1 mistake people make when training their new team members.
I see this all of the time. We get a new team member and the first thing we begin doing is TEACHING.
We begin going through 'the steps' to building a business, we assign videos to watch, and worst of all, books to read.
However, the problem with too much information is that you are overwhelming your new team member. And instead of being excited about the business, they feel bad that they don't have the time to get all of your assignments done.
Understand this: More teaching and training does NOT equal more results.
So, how should you train a new person?
Your Onboarding System must help people visualize the transformation that can occur in their lives when they take action and build a successful business.
So listen up as I go deep into the best way to onboard a new team member and also share with you the two strategies you need to be implementing today.
