Have you told them? Are you taking care of them? If not…Why not?

How to Build a Great Team
As a leader I would consider the following criteria when building your talent pool or team bench strength. These are the kinds of attitudes, talents, knowledge, skills and strengths I would be looking for in all individuals selected for my team.
• Does the individual show the potential to make a positive business impact on the present goals and future direction of the organization?
• Does the individual know their strengths so they can be placed in the right job?
• Does the individual demonstrate or are they working on developing the kind of attitude and presence that inspires confidence in you and others?
• Does the individual demonstrate the desire and passion required to win in their present position?
• Does the individual understand the organizations vision, strategy, goals and direction?
• Does the individual inspire others to defer to him/her on matters where he/she has expertise?
• Does the individual show and demonstrate respect at all levels within the organization including supervisors, peers, and subordinates and outside of the organization with suppliers, customers and the community?
• Does the individual possess the kind of communication skills that can effectively present ideas, concepts and policies that support and accomplish their specific organizational strategies, goals and objectives?
• Does the individual demonstrate the ability to take the smart risks required in completing an important project?
• Does the individual have a track record of living and fostering the desired culture of the organization?
Success in the workplace is no different than success in sports. It’s about having the best talent and using that talent, knowledge, skill and strength in the right place at the right time so you and your team can win the game. Do you know who your best talent is? Have you told them? Are you taking care of them? If not…Why not?
Bottom line…Do you have the right “bench strength talent” to win!

Re: Anyone Uses Elance.com? Guru.com? Rentacoder.com?
- I've had quite a bit of success on oDesk.com. I've never used Elance so I can't compare.
I like oDesk.com 'cos I get to sort thru people (e.g. within a certain bid range) with a single click. I find their help response very quick and I like the oDesk Team software that "providers" must install. This gives me the Buyer more insight as to what I am paying for. The Team software takes screenshots of the Providers screen on 10 min increments so I can see that the person is infact doing work for me.
Re: Great start, but no finish
- My advise is FOCUS on your business.
Focusing is the main factor to succeed on business. If you have a great idea, then follow it only, don't look anywhere else. It is especially essential in an online business. Because there are a lot of mind blowing sales letters promising millions dolllars or overnight success, people find it difficult to concentrate on one business and they lose their energy.
Concept is simple.
1- Have a good idea;
2- Build your business on it;
3- Monetize your business;
4- Promote it;
5- Build list of responsive customers;
6- Maintain You Business.
Focusing and not fearing from competition (instead you can learn from competitiors) are main tips of billionaires ,BTW.

Thanks orxan! But how do you know if you truly have a good idea or not? If we ask ourselves, we may be suffering from tunnel vision. On the other hand, friends/family may try to discourage us from pursuing a small business because of their own fears, while others will simply give us an empty "you can do it!" line.
