Leadership Tips for Building Strong Team Loyalty – 12 Tips To Help You Build Your Team

Do you think a team will be a winning team if they are not loyal to all their teammates? Do you think a team will be a winning team if they are not loyal to all their leaders/coaches? Do you think a team will be a winning team if the leaders/coaches are not loyal to each other? Of course not! So to build a successful team, you need to build team loyalty. Here are 12 tips on how:

Tip #1 – Must be loyal to the leadership team first and foremost (top down). If the leadership team isn’t unified the entire team falls apart.

Tip #2 – Must seek to understand the “why” (big picture) behind a change so you can positively explain it to your team (get behind it!). The more you understand the better you can advocate for change.

Tip #3 – Must speak up to make sure the leadership team fully understands the impact of change so the best decision is made. Leaders cannot be silent.

Tip #4 – Must build a culture that puts the team first (we before me). If you’re not loyal to the team they have no reason to be loyal to you

Tip #5 – Must take pride in your cause, mission, brand, goals, vision. You set the standard, so set it high!

Tip #6 – Must be present, lead by example, be a servant leader. You’ve got to cast the vision and be visible for people to see when they lose sight of the vision themselves.

Tip #7- Must treat everyone fairly at all times. Hold absolutely everyone to the same standard and hold yourself to it to. Fairness goes a long way to building team loyalty because they know they can trust you.

Tip #8 – Must be clear about responsibilities/roles/goals & hold everyone accountable (real-time feedback) (show you care). People don’t really like being held accountable, and that’s ok. But people REALLY don’t like to hold others accountable. As a leader you set the standards so make sure you communicate clearly and quickly.

Tip #9 – Must recognize, encourage and acknowledge people (always). There is always something positive to recognize! This helps build a positive and encouraging team culture.

Tip #10 – Must set high goals/standards and don’t be afraid of missing them, strive for perfection knowing full well it will never be attained, but in the process you achieve excellence

Tip #11 – Loyalty grows stronger during times of struggle, embrace the struggle of challenges (trauma bond) . You can’t avoid tough times or challenges so embrace them! Overcoming adversity builds a loyal team – especially when the leadership team helps pave the way.

Tip #12 – Don’t be afraid of losing people, you will, it does not mean you do not have strong team loyalty (build future leaders). It means that you’ve created great people that feel confident in moving on to something new in their life! Great leaders build future leaders.
