I would bet you that some of your employees have talents that could be quite valuable in helping you and your company, that are untapped. Sometimes we hire people for a job and never ask them what else they can do. How about telling them what you need help with and asking if anyone is interested in helping, or if they would have ideas or skills in that area? How about asking them – “What else can you do well that I (we) don’t know about?”
Learn all about the human capital you already have on the team and use the talents available to you. People love to do things they are good at and are interested in!
Great post Larry! The Treehouse definitely has potential resources with undiscovered hidden talents- we’ll make some more noise!
Thanks Larry! These are great! I look forward to them.
