Here are Three Golden Rules to Develop People

And they’re simple, easy and free!

Focusing on people is an investment in you and in the future. Plus, you’ll feel satisfied when the people around you grow and achieve their goals.

There are three simple rules that will lead to rich rewards. I call these the ‘three golden rules’ because they always lead to success.

1. Develop yourself

Commit to ongoing learning and growth. This is the key to success – far more than intelligence, charisma or even hard work. Here are simple, easy and mostly free ways you can build learning into your life:

· Listen to podcasts in your car or when you’re exercising

· Read articles during your work breaks (your boss will be impressed) or while waiting for an appointment

· Read e-newsletters

· Listen to speakers and people you meet at networking groups.

Just doing these things once a week, or even once a month, will make a real difference.

2. Develop others

The key to attracting and keeping good people is coaching and development. It also releases potential for great performance. Plus, sharing ideas and helping others to grow will bring respect and new opportunities for learning.

Here are some ways to develop others:

· Listen to people

· Find out who they are

· Ask where they want to go

· Help them achieve their goals.

Do this and you’ll find opportunities opening up in unexpected places.

3. Develop your organisation

In business, real results come from planned development that benefits individuals and the whole organisation. Regardless of the size of the organisation, start with an assessment of your current reality:

· Where would you like to be in 3-5 years?

· Identify the gaps that need filling

· Identify strengths and develop them – they are the secret to your success.

A commitment to developing yourself, others and your organisation will make you a ‘gold medal performer’ or put more ‘gold in the bank’. It will also build strong relationships and make the journey a lot more fun. Enjoy!
