Great Place to Work Spotlight: Core Growth Strategies

great places to work

Reading books together is a great team-building activity, particularly when team members choose the book and participate voluntarily. That is exactly what happens at Core Growth Strategies. Something pretty amazing has grown from this practice at Core. Read on…

Christeen Era, owner of Core Growth Strategies, is sharing the Dream Manager with her team members.

Christeen is taking it one step further, though. She's turning this into a team-building activity with vision boarding. Since they are a virtual team, Christeen has found a creative solution. Check out her letter to her team, along with the article she is including on the power of Vision Boards.

I highly recommend both the Dream Manager and Vision Board exercises for your team. It's well worth it!

UPDATE: Since this post was published, Christeen shared with me the impact the activity is having not just on her team, but on their families, as well. One of her team members got her entire family making vision boards. Here is what she emailed Christeen the next day:

“Oh my gosh! We were all up till 2 last night doing vision boards!!!! EVERYBODY did one! … Best idea ever…thanks for giving us memories we'll cherish forever!”

About The Author

Dr. Sabrina Starling, The Business Psychologist and international best-selling author of the How to Hire the Best series and The 4 Week Vacation™, is the founder of Tap the Potential and host of the Profit by Design podcast. At Tap the Potential, we work to free business owners from the constant demands of a growing business.

We believe work supports life, not the other way around. Clients in our Better Business, Better Life coaching program have more time for what matters most and more money in their bank account than they’ve ever had. Next, we send them off on a 4 Week Vacation™ to celebrate their hard-earned journey to take their life back!

Dr. Sabrina and her team at Tap the Potential are on a mission to change the story of entrepreneurship from one of long hours, grinding it out, to one of sustainably profitable businesses that support and enhance life. The Tap the Potential Solution™ and our Tap the Potential Family of Business Owners are disrupting small business as usual. We are on our way to making the Tap the Potential Solution™ the mainstream model for growing business.

By 2023, 150 Tap the Potential clients will have taken 4 Week Vacations. These are the trailblazers, role modeling what’s possible for entrepreneurs. In many entrepreneurial circles, it is becoming more and more common for one entrepreneur to ask another, “Have you taken a 4 Week Vacation™?” (as opposed to asking “How many employees do you have?” or “What is your annual revenue?”). Taking a fully unplugged 4 Week Vacation is rapidly becoming the recognized symbol of entrepreneurial success.
