How to Manage Your Team

🧩 Delegate with context, not control

Delegation isn't just about assigning tasks; it’s about providing the full picture, the 'why', behind the task. This empowers your team to make informed decisions and take ownership.

The Netflix style of delegation is losely coupled and highly aligned.

🕵️ Use SCQ to delegate with context

The SCQ model is like a detective story that helps you solve any riddle: first, you set the scene (Situation), then a twist appears (Complication), and finally, you ask the big question that solves the mystery (Question)!

🌟 Autonomy, Mastery, and Purpose

These are the golden trifecta for motivating your team. When you delegate, aim to enhance these elements:

• Give autonomy: Give people control of own behaviors and goals.
• Allow for mastery: Enable them to enhance their own skills needed for success and use what they already have.
• Give clear purpose: Underline the task’s meaning to foster the sense of belonging.

⚙️Rapid prototyping for quick output

Innovation is key, but so is efficiency. There is little that we hate more than doing work for the garbage. Rapid prototyping allows for quick testing and learning, reducing waste and accelerating progress.
