Why run a community?

For years, we “just” headhunted and placed people, and it was a transactional business, and it worked. But doing the same every day is as well for us no progress, so we developed. We started with the Leadership Library and have been so excited about existing knowledge, but it never HIT us, why? We have never asked, we had no peer groups, we just ran a service. 


Today we connect with GREAT Leaders, we share books, stories, and relevant topics to inspire you to move, to change, to adapt to become a better Leader. A Community – we believe – can be powerful when the right people attend.

Business Unit

Just Better: How to Build and manage a Business Unit from scratch

A business unit is the heart of any successful organization. Without a clear, concise plan for managing and leading your business unit, you’ll be struggling to keep up with the competition. You need a structure in place that makes it easy for both your team and customers to understand what their role is and how they can help your business grow.

Setting up a business unit is the first and most significant step in managing your business. The purpose of a business unit is to provide a core function that can be performed by multiple people. This function should be manageable and efficient so that you can focus on other aspects of your business. Start by creating a Business Unit Agreement (BUA) with all of your employees and customers. This agreement will outline the responsibilities of each party and how they will work together. You also need to create clear boundaries between your business unit and the rest of your company. For example, you should never allow employees to work for other businesses without first getting consent from their boss. Once you have defined your core function, it’s time to start recruiting employees for your business unit. With careful planning, you can find employees who are best suited for this role and who are affordable to maintain a high level of productivity. Finally, it’s important to keep an eye on your business unit’s performance so that you can make necessary adjustments or changes as needed. Tips for Successfully Managing a Business Unit.

Additionally, using technology to improve your business unit can help you track and measure progress more effectively.

Finally, keep in mind that using technology should never replace human interaction – after all, humans are often better at taking abstract concepts and turning them into tangible realities than machines can be!

Team for Special Purposes

Just Better: How to build the perfect team for challenging ventures

Introduction: As a business, it’s important to have the perfect team. But how do you find them? And what type of team is best for your business? There are many ways to find the right team, but here’s one way to get started: ask your customers. Not only will this help you evaluate the fit of your potential team members, but it will also give you some valuable feedback about whom they’re interested in working with. This way, you can build an ideal team that meets your needs and interests—all without spending too much money. Why You Should Consider Building a Team for Special Purposes. A good team can help your business achieve its goals. The team can provide synergy and communication abilities, which can make sure everyone is on the same page. Additionally, a well-functioning team can help to reduce stress and improve productivity. But setting up a new business unit, entering new markets, and exporting into new areas of the world, needs a different team, than your headquarters! How to Choose the Right Team for Your Situation? When you’re looking to hire a team, it’s important to consider what qualities are essential for the role you’re seeking. For example, if you want a team that will work independently or as part of a collective effort, you need to ask about their qualifications and whether they have any experience working in that capacity. Likewise, if you want someone who can work under pressure or take on new challenges, it’s important to consider their character and temperament. Especially every situation with a “New” in front of New Markets, New Business, and New Countries, requires small managing directors who can make big deals with small or no staff at all. How to build ramp-up, start-up, and challenging market teams? Once you’ve selected the right team members, it’s time to build them up! Most Investors and CEOs still think it’s the recruitment only challenge waiting for them. No, building a team is part of the goal. This step involves getting them organized and training them so that they have the skills they need for their new job roles. You also need to ensure that all team members understand and accept the shared goals of your business and feel comfortable working together harmoniously. How to Select the Right Team for Growth? Choosing the right team is key to any business. Whether you’re looking for a team of experts in a specific area or just some friends to help you out on your next project, having the right mix of skills and expertise is essential. To find the perfect team for your business, you first need to decide what type of team you want. There are three main types of teams: operational, creative, and communicative. Operational teams work directly with clients or customers and are focused on meeting deadlines and achieving results. Creative teams work outside the traditional bounds of business and often come up with innovative ways to solve problems. Communicative teams communicate ideas and suggestions to other team members so that everyone can work together effectively. Depending on your business goals and needs, you may also want to consider using a management or technical team as well as an HR or marketing team. However, because every business is different, it’s important to consult a variety of professionals before making this decision so that you can get the best possible match for your unique needs. Once you have decided which type of team meets your needs, it’s time to find the right members. This can be difficult since there are so many talented individuals out there who would love to work in a big company like yours (and who will price themselves out of opportunities). However, by doing some research and networking, you should be able to find someone who fits your qualifications and interests perfectly. Once you have found a good member fit for your business, it’s time finally to get to know them better. This process shouldn’t be too hard since most people are great at talking about themselves, but can be quite difficult when trying to open up about their personal life in detail – something that may not be appropriate for an interview setting. By getting more information about each member of your team, you should be able to build an accurate picture of them as someone who could play an important role in your organization. Finally, it’s important Not To Overthink things – Start small and gradually expand upon what they do rather than making sweeping changes at once, which could backfire in spectacular fashion (just ask anyone who has ever worked in cubicles). If everything goes according to plan until something goes wrong – great! But remember that mistakes happen – learn from them. Conclusion Having a good team can help you succeed in your business. The right team can help you achieve your goals and objectives, increase sales, and grow your company. By understanding the different types of teams and getting to know the members, it’s easy to find the perfect team for your business. With the right selection of team members, you can build a successful business. And when it comes to “NEW” situations, go with the people who are more agile and flexible, they can handle your growth.
