How monday.com Can Make You a Better Leader
A leader should show respect to their team and also get that same respect back from them. Part of this is staying on top of tasks and managing your team in the best way for your business. Monday.com keeps you and your team organized and in turn, supports effective and motivated work from everyone. Productive team management helps the whole company run smoothly. Below we’ll go over tips and tools that monday.com offers that will make you a better leader.
Project Communication
No matter where your team may be in the world, monday.com makes it easy for all of you to stay on the same page (no pun intended). You can easily add comments to discuss each item or assign tasks by tagging the specific team member. This can be for team meetings, project updates, action items, and more. Never feel like the communication will get lost in overflowing inboxes when you have project boards.
2. Keep Goals on Track
Problem solving and networking can quickly get in the way of both team and company goals. You can simply set short-term and long-term goals in monday.com with due dates and priorities. Having the option to make private boards for each team member helps keep goals in their mind and focused on their own objectives, with no comparison to others. At Auxo, we separate our goals into each quarter, keeping goals attainable and not overwhelming. This also provides a way to enhance and improve ourselves and our team by easily seeing any areas of improvement or items that deserve recognition in performance review meetings.
3. Delegate Tasks
According to a recent pulse study, 21% of employees feel overwhelmed with their workload “most of the time.” Every employee should have a workload they can manage, or else burnout will happen quickly. A way to lessen this overwhelm is to delegate. Though, it’s hard to know what task to give to what team member, while keeping it all organized and streamlined. One way to do this is with workflow automations in monday.com. You can set it up so that once one task is completed, another is created and assigned to a new team member with custom notifications and reminders, automated status changes, board creations, and more. A leader can also support their team by creating an overview of task assignments for each team member and their deadlines so no one has too little or too much work at once.
