Sometimes it can be hard for start-up owners to build a team, especially just because they are starting, it is also very hard to get competent people in the start-up phase.
The path of any startup to stunning success begins with a winning team. The employees you work with can make or break your young project. The team will determine whether a startup will turn into a thriving and promising business or die in the early stages on the way to victory

However, finding the right people who share your desire and passion is not so easy.
In this article, we will provide a step-by-step guide on how to form a startup team and tell life hacks that will make your team extremely involved and motivated.

Startups are powered by passion, and building a company requires an immense amount of self-belief
Building a business is a people game. No matter how good your concept, your core technology, or your product, your startup will fail unless it has the right team behind it

Building a good team starts with the founder so the first is leading by example.
Leading by example
A leader has to demonstrate passion and enthusiasm first, then it becomes contagious to the other team members, you cannot inspire people to become passionate about a vision that the leader hasn’t embodied.
You cannot expect the leader to be more visionary than the business than the team, it is the sacrifice that the leader bears that is seen by the team that they start emulating.

Encourage work-life balance
There have to be flexible working hours, most of the team members might be volunteers and might also be students, who just want to boost their internship and experience, but how they are treated and compensated would determine whether they would continue working with you.

Empowerment
Improve the platform and provide opportunities for individual growth, let their skills be built through training programs, and let their personal growth align with company success. Allow them to attend seminars and shows that would also increase their knowledge, exposure, and network.

Incentivise and reward
Create incentives and reward schemes for those who give more than their best, let it not become a basis for favoritism but let it be a standard that when one surpasses, everyone can readily agree like any business closed that is worth more than 20,000 dollars, the closer gains a commission of 10%. It could be the number of sales done in a month or even the number of products sold within a period.

Foster open communication
Create an environment where everyone is comfortable sharing ideas and suggestions (especially at the early stage) this is one of the greatest tools used in Kaizen methodology during brainstorming sessions. Let people be quick to criticize whatever they think could be a setback for the organization. This doesn’t have to be disorderly.

Create social connections outside work.
There could be hangouts, retreats, and dinners as a company done probably at the end of the month or even the year, to appreciate the workers and get them to be comfortable to share their discomfort personally and individually.

Share success stories of other successful Start-ups
Share the stories of other organizations that are doing better and were once little but went through the same challenges you are currently going through. This would help the team to be visionary and optimistic whenever they come across challenges and problems.

Do this and see your team winning.
