Unfortunately, many aspiring leaders I mentor are not aware of the signals people are looking for, or are not attuned to the subtleties of their own actions. Show humility while acting as a mentor and coach. A trusted leader knows that all negotiations with an individual are cumulative, not independent and soon forgotten events.

As a mentor to entrepreneurs, I recognize that it’s easy to spot a dysfunctional team after the fact, but it’s not so easy to spot the right attributes of new team candidates, in the context of existing members. Effective teams get to know each other on a personal basis, and find opportunities to meet for lunch or an outside event as a team.

As a mentor to many entrepreneurs and business owners, I find that many of you have a real fear of uncomfortable interaction situations with individuals on your team, and often delay these discussions endlessly until a crisis occurs. If you listen carefully, you will also learn from them, diffusing your fear of confrontations.
