When you think of benefits you could provide your team, you think of health care, vacation days, bonuses, money, and titles of authority. Here’s another, often forgotten, way to bless your team and those around you: honor and respect their time.
Here’s a few simple ways to do that:
- Don’t make them wait for you
- Don’t block out their time, and then cancel at the last minute
- Don’t hold them hostage in pointless meetings
- Respect their personal time.
Many leaders, and people in general, forget the common courtesy of timeliness from time to time. It’s good to be reminded occasionally that you bless others when you respect their time.
