Greaux Events Shares How to Build a Winning Business
Metairie, LA, June 2, 2015 (Newswire.com) - “The world of business is rife with sports analogies, and I can see why,” said the director of operations. “There are countless similarities between athletics and business, and I especially appreciate the way both areas are so team focused. It’s great when you have a group of talented individuals helping you move closer to your goals, but when they know how to strategically fuse their abilities and experiences, they’re unstoppable.”
The director of operations pointed out that, for many sports, the seasons culminate with championship games. The winning teams are not simply comprised of top athletes, but of people who enjoy working with others toward common goals. The same concept applies to business, where leaders can build their own championship teams.
"At Greaux Events, I aim to lead by example. I work and behave in ways I want to see in my people. I would never expect them to do anything I wouldn't do myself, and I strive to convey openness and honesty. This is how you build a team of champions and a winning business."

Greaux Events’ Director Explains How to Build a High-Performing Team
“Fostering strong connections is a major part of developing a winning team,” the director of operations continued. “At Greaux Events, my fellow leaders and I do our best to ensure that everyone here is united and happy. For instance, we frequently get together away from the office. This allows us to step out of our professional roles and relax. We have fun and everyone gets closer – it really affects loyalty and productivity, too.”
According to the director of operations, it’s also crucial to foster an upbeat and positive work environment. “I’m quite discerning when it comes to the hiring process,” he explained. “I’m not concerned about industry knowledge and technical skills as much as I am about goal-focused mindsets, empathy, and other soft skills. Of course, everyone I on board must be team players. These are the traits that promote a healthy culture.”
The director of operations also emphasized that leaders should be available to offer guidance and support, but that they should empower their teams by giving them challenging responsibilities and trusting them to do well. Those who are uncomfortable with delegating work or who tend to micromanage their people not only become overwhelmed quickly, but trigger frustration and disengagement within their teams, too.
“Above all else, leaders must remember that excellent performances begin with them,” concluded the director of operations. “At Greaux Events, I aim to lead by example. I work and behave in ways I want to see in my people. I would never expect them to do anything I wouldn’t do myself, and I strive to convey openness and honesty. This is how you build a team of champions and a winning business.”
