You’ve been growing your team, yet...

You’re still holding too much together on your own. *Sigh*Something has to change.

On the 1:1 Healthy Team Growth program path, we’ll help you figure out exactly what to change and how. So you can rely on your team to carry the business forward with you.

This path is designed for founders or small business owners with teams between 1 to 35 people, made up of any mix of contractors, employees, and/or vendors. On this page, we just refer to all of them as team members.

You’ve probably got some good team members…you just wish you could rely on them more.

It’s weighing on you. You're worried this is starting to hinder your business' growth.

It might even be the obstacle that is stopping you from expanding your business in new ways, getting the clients you really want, or being able to increase prices.

Day to day you might find yourself:

Swooping in to polish work you delegated

Maybe it's tiny tweaks to a client deliverable, or bigger things like making strategic decisions. Because it’d take too long to explain how to get it right. Or you’ve tried actually and just aren’t getting it down, even though you feel they should know this by now.

Feeling unsupported by your team

When you spot a problem, you wish you could just say, "Hey, can you look into this?" to a team member. But when simple things aren't getting done right, how can you trust them to solve these bigger problems? So it just falls back on you.

Worrying about keeping quality high

What if important things slip through the cracks, or clients lose confidence in your team or business when you're not as involved anymore. You've built up a lot of trust with your clients, you don't want it to take a hit as you grow.

Trying lots of tactics to engage your team

From 1:1s to team meetings to async updates, you’ve probably tried communicating, delegating different tasks, and some training. You’ve likely even got some SOPs, so you might be feeling at a loss on what to put in place now.

It’s tough because some of these team members have been with you awhile, maybe even stayed with you as the business has changed over time. So you don’t want to let them all go and start from scratch.

So you’re wondering, well, what now?

Let’s pinpoint where to start overcoming your team growth obstacles.

Founder and CEO, People First Finance

I was referred to Monisha by a dear friend and fellow business owner when I expressed concerns about my team capacity for growth.

I wanted to scale my business, and had good infrastructure in place, but didn't feel comfortable onboarding new clients and team members into a company culture that was completely reliant on what I had thrown together myself.

From our first call, we were literally finishing each others sentences and flowing naturally from one area of focus to another. I was surprised at how detailed, attentive and process oriented Monisha was for also being a genius when it comes strategy and business design.

I am consistently impressed by her ability to lead and direct our work, meet me wherever I am any given week, and infuse the company values we solidified together into every single decision we make.

I have worked with Monisha for about 7 months now, and I can confidently say that it is the best investment I have made in the last year for my business.

I went from a leader with lack of boundaries, saying the right thing to get the sale, to taking my time making sure that each client we work with is the right fit and that mutual expectations are crystal clear.

I have peace of mind knowing that there is no challenge we can't solve together, and that I have a committed and brilliant mind working alongside me to strengthen my business in every possible way.

I cannot recommend Monisha more highly! She is the real deal and in the number one spot on my list of preferred service professionals.

If you’ve reached these obstacles, it’s highly likely you're outgrowing what got you here.

Which is quite far from where you began!

At every new phase, your team growth strategy, structure, culture, roles, and people need a refresh to stay in sync and move together towards your bigger vision.

This doesn’t mean pave over everything you’ve built already.

It means: examine what works to keep that and adapt the areas that create friction and limit your team from taking full ownership.

And choose the right changes to fit your bigger business vision and open up a pathway to expand your team in a healthy way.
We’ll workshop you to:

Make the right upgrades so your team can carry your business forward with you.

1.

Identify gaps and refresh your foundations so your team can support your business alongside you.

We’ll help you identify exactly what elements of your business are working and what are ready for an upgrade to prepare your business for the next phase of growth.

Then, guide you through mapping out how to make those upgrades.

2.

Get the right work done by the right people—and minimize work falling back on you.

We’ll train you to roll out any necessary role adjustments or structural changes that are needed to bring your next phase of growth foundation to life. 

So yes, we’re talking supporting you through both strategy and strategy implementation.

3.

Move you into the ideal role that works for you and supports your business growth.

Shift your role and as a result your team will show up differently around you too.

We’ll guide you to do the right CEO work to set direction, shape your environment, and equip your team with essential context for their work. 

Of course, to shed any roles that you no longer need to hold anymore too—without anything slipping through the cracks.

Let’s turn a good team into a great team you can rely on.

With clear direction and healthy structure, open up a path to expand your business in new ways.

Welcome a new phase of Healthy Team Growth—with a strategist by your side.

We create the canvas, so you can be the CEO.

As your strategist, we sequence, structure, and guide you through problem-solving and decision-making.

You show up as CEO to be equipped to make smart choices and build the skills to implement the right upgrades for your team and business growth

Especially when you're past the early days, each business is nuanced.

After we assess your specific situation, we'll design a plan to cover just the areas that'll make the biggest difference for you as CEO and your business. (Take a peak at our toolkit to see the areas we can cover with you on the Healthy Team Growth path below.)
Get your essential CEO work done in personal 1:1 workshops.
You’ll be both guided to strategize for your business and trained on your core CEO skills in a supportive, fruitful, and fun way.

Get a personal and collaborative 1:1 monthly program designed just for you.

You’ll also get asynchronous support through a 1:1 collaborative dashboard.
Share your swirling thoughts and open questions and we’ll equip you with training, tools, and guidance to work through them. Along with tracking progress and troubleshooting challenges that come up in implementation.
We begin with an initial fixed-length engagement for every new client.

After 550+ workshops, we've found an initial 3-6 months works well to identify and implement the most important changes, depending on your team size. Then, you'll have the option to roll into monthly support at a right-fit pace for you.

Because this is custom 1:1 work, we have a range of options at different rates.

Book your complimentary advisory session below so we can get to know your specific situation. We’ll also give you a look at our process. Then, if we find it’s aligned, we can share how your program plan would look.

Founder of Lily Spruce

I reached out to Monisha because I was lacking some big picture focus and proactive thinking about taking my business to the next level.

But to what level?

That was what Monisha and I worked on! She's a great listener and can synthesized and organized my roaming thoughts, bringing things into focus in a very visual way.

I wasn't sure what "growth strategy" was, but I understand it more fully now: ensuring that there is direction in your day-to-day, and year-to-year.

It also means creating a solid work culture for employees and contractors, and providing systems and clarity for all those involved with your business.

Working with Monisha is about facing the underside of your company so that the leveling up is intentional, and considered, and not reactionary.

It was a deep investment in the future of my business, and I'm happy to report, well worth it.

A peek at our toolkit

Areas we can support you with on the Healthy Team Growth program path

We’ll help you identify the right work for you. We’ll only do what’s really useful for you, in the order that makes sense for you, and leave out what’s not.

Core CEO Work

Define structure and roles that equip your team to take full ownership.

Graduate from delegating tasks. Instead, create well-defined roles to transfer thinking, doing, and caring to your team (a.k.a ownership).

When your team members just check tasks off a list, the associated invisible labor—decision-making, emotional nuances, and context—falls back on you.

We’ll work with you to create structure and roles that allow you to transfer ownership to your team and be clear about how they fit into the bigger picture of the business.

Core CEO Work

Shape shared norms to set the tone for your workplace delightfully.

What values, beliefs, and work ethic do you want your team to share—and for your business to be known for? 

This impacts how people feel when interacting with your business, whether it is team, clients, or broader community.

As CEO, you set the tone for how people will show up at your workplace, virtually or otherwise. We’ll help you shape an environment you’re really proud of making happen and your team feels part of something bigger working with you.

Core CEO Work

Practice healthy accountability without icky techniques like punishment.

Old school accountability relies on fear and punishment. This is not helpful if you want a healthy workplace. Thankfully, we’ve got a new approach for you.

We’ll train you on healthy, non-punitive, accountability practices that focus on repair, growth, learning, and problem-solving. 

And, be by your side to help you navigate tricky team situations, for example how to respond when a team member misses the mark without being micro-manage-y, mean, or demotivating your team.

Variable Founder Work

Figure out who to hire next and at what pace with team growth roadmapping.

Who do you hire next? What skills do you build in-house vs. outsource? At what pace? These are strategic choices that create (or can hamper) growth. 

Invest in the right support and know when/how to adapt and evolve your team to meet you in new phases of growth. 

We’ll help you weigh your options and consider, for example: key factors and trade-offs to think about when preparing to reinvest in growth or how to decide what level of experience to hire for based on what your business needs.

Variable Founder Work

Train your team on the nuances of your business that you can’t hire outright for.

Train people on the nuances of how you work. Especially the things that you can’t hire outright for because they’re unique to you and your brand.

If your business does something in a unique and special way, it’s trickier to have great people grow with you without specific training.

We’ll help you figure out the essential touchpoints in your business where team training is needed to support your team growth. Then, help you get what’s been living in your head and experience onto the page. So that you can build valuable, internal IP to train your team and increase the value of your business.

Variable Founder Work

Deliver a high quality experience that inspires confidence in your team.

Deliver a delightful and reliable experience to clients that inspires confidence in not just you, but your team too. 

We’ll help you define and equip your team with a clear standard that illustrates what success looks like, specifically for your business and brand, so that they can create a great experience for your clients. 

Without you worrying about quadruple checking everything before it’s sent out. 

Here’s to raving clients and team members who want to refer you to everyone they know, that’s a good fit, of course!

“I came to Monisha because I was feeling overwhelmed and stressed in my business. I couldn’t figure out the right structure to help me keep up with my current day-to-day tasks and hire support today while also taking the future into consideration.

With my busy schedule, it was difficult for me to work on the things that will grow my business in an efficient and effective way.

Working with Monisha allowed me to build a solid foundation that is flexible enough to grow as the business grows. Now that we’ve completed our project, I know exactly what to put my focus on, what the next steps are, and who to hire.

The way Monisha combines the strategy and operations gives me confidence in knowing that I won’t only be efficient but also profitable.”
