Encourage Others to Think Strategically.<\/p>\n<p>Solutions come from knowledge. When members of your team know and understand the station\u2019s strategic goals and challenges, they will be better placed to offer relevant solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Knowledge is power and empowered decision-making only occurs when information is readily available and participation is encouraged.<\/p>\n<p>Team members flourish when they feel they have a voice and they can see their work as part of the bigger picture.<\/p>\n<p>The more strategic minds you have generating ideas for you, the better. Try to\u00a0build a culture\u00a0in your radio station or at least within your team where everybody is encouraged to think strategically. Reward people who come up with strategically creative ways of doing things.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t always have to be a financial incentive &#8211; public recognition of someone\u2019s efforts is often enough.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By David Kidd, BPR This article is the fifth in a six part series.
