Manage episode 448570163 series 2801707
The UK’s Chartered Management Institute has previously found that 41% of managers believe having direct reports increases their own productivity. So, I wanted to hear from someone who has built a strong team to help them achieve more.
Anant Sharma is the Founder & CEO of Matter Of Form, a leading luxury brand and digital agency based in London. Having founded his company in 2009, Anant and his team work with some of the world’s leading brands including Aman, Belmond & Knight Frank.
Keep listening to hear Anant’s advice on discovering your strengths & how to build a team around you to enhance your own productivity.
Anant’s advice
- Your business will evolve as you personally grow and change; you may have to let go of some initial ideas
- Prioritise what is important and what you should be doing; this may mean handing on to others the things you are experienced at
- Concentrate (without guilt!) on reflection / exploring opportunities / less quantifiable “work”
- Celebrate thinking time and allow space for it in your week
- There is no need to keep packing in information which is not always productive
- Be modest about your daily to-do list
- Have belief in where you want to go
- Know yourself and employ accordingly; you may require mirror personalities of yourself, or you may need strong support in those areas where you know yourself to be weak
- Know the value of meditation
