Mirinda du Plessis mother, grandmother, and CEO at Red Diamond Leaders, recently spoke to a TNG online meeting about how building your ‘Soul Singing Team’ will create a profoundly profitable business. 

Du Plessis said that something she knows to be important – after going through several difficult personal life and business events – is ‘the way’ that she needed to rely on her team. 

“It showed me the importance of having a ‘soul singing team’ – a team that stands by you through thick and thin.”

De Plessis believes that every business owner needs to understand leadership, team synergy and profit model innovation skills; that’s where Red Diamond Leaders play their part in teaching and assisting businesses in hiring people with that same mindset.

Here are three pillars of a Soul Singing Team:

All three bleed into each other, and one cannot be successful without the other.

Entrepreneurial Leadership

Having ‘one song sheet’ means that you have a clear and constant strategy, vision, purpose, value system, culture, and a transparent accountability style work environment as a leader.

Team synergy

Create a team from all different walks of life dedicated to contributing and supporting your ‘one song sheet’. 

Your song is nothing without the voices to carry it, so it is important to pick the correct vocalists to join your choir in your ‘Soul Singing Team’ so the vision is carried out with conviction.

Profit innovation

This is heavily powered by team synergy, that ‘can-do’ kiwi attitude we need, know and love.

Profit innovation can only come through the radical collaboration of a great team with the same vision.

Du Plessis and her team believe greatly in pulling together the right team for you and your business to be as profitable as possible with the right team around you. Like they always say, there is no ‘I’ in team.
