Be Available and Flexible for Your Team

Your team looks to you for guidance, especially during times of change or turmoil. As a leader, you need to maintain the lines of communication and practice an open-door policy to ensure that misunderstandings or confusion always are addressed quickly. Take the time to communicate specific situational concerns, both to individuals and the group, for a better understanding of the current scene. Leaders who communicate well and are flexible are usually more successful in maintaining a smoothly functioning team.
