I’m excited to write that I’ve taken on a larger role with one of my clients.
I’m on a journey of moving towards managing parts of her business with the future plan to become her integrator.
An integrator is a person who runs the day to day of the business.
I’ve broken down three things that I believe help make someone a great integrator.
Number one
To be a great integrator you have to be detail-oriented.
You’re the one who makes sure nothing slips through the gaps.
You make sure that everything runs smoothly.
You keep everyone on the same page and keep track of all the moving parts.
Number two
You have to be good in a team.
Whether it’s a small team or a massive team the same principle applies: communication is KEY.
You need to be able to communicate effectively with a wide range of people.
You have to be nonconfrontational and good at conflict management.
You have to be compassionate but not a pushover.
Number three
You have to get things done.
You have to be a do-er.
Someone the ideas person can say “I want -idea- to happen” and you go “okay no problem” and GET IT DONE.
It’s important that you keep the visionary (business owner usually or ideas person) on track and that you can know when to say no.
If you feel like this is you to a T, start doing some research into being an integrator (I recommend reading Rocket Fuel)
There are too many ideas people and not enough people putting those ideas in place, so the market is ready for YOUR SKILLS.
What are you waiting for!
