Spicer's Consulting’s Post

Three reasons why you should consider hiring me as a consultant/coach/contractor/employee. Would love to see your top three too! 1. Innovation and leadership: I’ve built several brands and launched them in multiple different sectors, paved career paths in community mental health, peer support, private sector healthcare and business development. 2. Compassionate team player: I thrive on teams as an extrovert, an idea person and I genuinely care about others. I’ve been a Team Lead, trainer, facilitator and have experience working in fast paced, high volume and team driven settings in person and remote. 3. Closing deals with customer care: I love a challenge, the thrill of the deal and I will go lengths to make things work in the best interest of the client, customer, consumer or patient. Tell me what your three whys are and how can I support you to- get hired, turn your life around, advance, problem solve, or be the best hire you ever made.

Many of us have no recent experience joining a new team or company and can easily forget what that feels like. There are a lot of emotions that can bubble up with change. Understanding those emotions can help manage a person’s outlook and satisfaction with their decision. If you want to ruin your new hire, be sure to ignore this advice... https://lnkd.in/eBxre_rw #CoachKen #BusinessCoach #RealEstateCoach #BestPractices #Hiring

Episode 7/10 -> Hiring & building a team. 💪🏼 I knew from day 1 that I did not want to do execution work, since I am a big believer of delegation and only sticking to tasks which I cant hire for. So the first step was to clearly define my role → business development, operations management, project management, hiring & HR, and being our first office admin. 🧑💼 BD and PC → because most poeple can’t do it better than me. 🎓 Operations & HR → because I dont have the budget for it yet. ✍️ Office admin → because no one else would do it at this point. Since my role was set, the next step was to go on for a spending spree. As soon as I publicly announced what I was up to on LinkedIn, there were several people who started reaching out to me directly or indirectly. There were at least 10-12 good people who wanted to work with me. Problem was, that I did not budget for all of this, neither could I afford so many people. 😅 Building a network in my early 20s enabled me to hire without any HR or any past experience with the HR work. Additionally, it solved for the very challenging task of hiring for a new startup! So I started talking to people 1 on 1 to make sure if they align with what I was building since all of them were taking a big risk coming on this journey with me. We had an all experienced team, all of them came without any increaments, with a big risk that all of this could fail. I can still never thank the initial set of people who came along on this ride with me. ❤️ #hiring #culture #teambuilding #entrepreneurship #businessowner #businesstips #businesscoach #businesslife #entrepreneurlife #hiringnow #teammanagement

Learn this hiring shortcut that took me 10 years to figure out... I’ve noticed that, like I did a few years ago, many small business owners jump into hiring and team building without understanding a critical factor for success ➝ Understanding the components of an operational team ➝ That frees you from daily operations ➝ Fuel business growth ➝ And keep everything running smoothly For years, I didn’t fully understand the core functions that make a business run smoothly And I truly believe no one should start hiring until they do If you don’t know these core functions, how can you accurately assess where your business needs help? Why do you need to hire? What role will actually move your business forward? The goal is to eventually step away from the day-to-day and step into your role as the visionary CEO of your business It all starts with understanding the core functions of the operational team that will help you grow and take your rightful place as a true leader in your business: ➝ Admin/VA ➝ Marketing ➝ Sales ➝ Operations Management ➝ Management ➝ Customer Support and Services ➝ Hiring Manager/HR ➝ Financial Function Each of these functions includes multiple roles, but having this understanding is a solid starting point It will allow you to make smart, strategic hiring decisions because you’ll understand exactly what area your business needs to thrive -------- ♻️ If you found this valuable, follow us for more insights and share this with your network! . . . . . . #howtohire #remotelifestyle #remotehiring #remoteteam #digitalnomadlifestyle #agencyowner #digitalnomadbusiness #StrategicHiringAdvice #OperationalExcellence #HiringForGrowth #BusinessOperationsSuccess #EffectiveTeamBuilding

Are you spending your days buried in busywork instead of focusing on big picture growth? To scale your company, you need to free yourself from the day-to-day grind and make time for strategic planning and innovation. The solution? Delegating lower-level tasks and optimizing your operations. 💡 Here's how to get started: 1️⃣ Track your time for a week to see where you're spending the most hours 2️⃣ Identify tasks that could be delegated, automated, or eliminated 3️⃣ Hire or outsource to fill key roles (e.g. virtual assistant, social media manager) 4️⃣ Set up systems and processes to ensure smooth handoffs and communication Block off time in your schedule for strategic work and stick to it It can be tough to let go of the reins, but remember - your job as CEO is to steer the ship, not row the boat. 🚣♀️ By delegating and optimizing, you'll gain the bandwidth to be the visionary leader your company needs and deserves.

We hire because we're seeking that immediate relief to get things off our to-do list. We hire to gain another pair of hands to delegate tasks to. In the end we aim to: ⌛️ Work "less" 💡 Focus on CEO tasks 🎉 Take vacations But when we actually start hiring it can appear to get worse before it gets better! Are you resonating with this? Am I seeing your head nodding "yes?" Why is this true? Because in our rush to just get some help, we actually did not take the time to prepare for that hire properly. 📊 We have to figure out what the business actually needs 💻 We have to have our systems and processes in place 🙇🏽♀️ We have to be prepared to onboard this new team member If we can just take the time to do the work inside, outside, and around the business BEFORE we hire, we can actually experience the real benefit to this new hire sooner rather than later. Sometimes we also stay away from the hard work that starts AFTER we hire because we are not sure how to do these things...To lead, to refine operations, to manage the new team member etc. But that's why we ask for help. Looking to hire your next team member. Let's have a complimentary call to discuss your plans further. #teammembers #hiring #smallbusiness #allthethings
