NAVARRO: Focus on leveraging people’s strengths. Don’t think that you’re going to take on people’s weaknesses and try to fix them or change them. It’s much more productive as a leader to focus on their strengths. And when you’re building a team, it’s like putting together a puzzle. And when you’re trying to put together that puzzle, you want to find all the strengths of the team, put that together, and when that happens, you pretty much have magic. Because you have a team that’s very motivated. They learn to solve problems themselves using each other’s strengths, and they feel very valued as a member of the team and the company, and a part of something where they know they can make a difference.
