The most common mistake you can make in growing your team is assuming that people’s titles determine who they are as a Leader.
Senior, Lead, Manager, Principal, Staff… pick your word and throw it against the wall, it doesn’t mean anything.
The first thing you need to do before you start coaching a team is sit down with everyone and feel out who they are and what they are about.
You might find out that the person that the team needs to lead them, isn’t the one with the fancy title.
