Shannon Waller's Team Success Why Profiles Are My Secret Weapon For Building Unstoppable Teams
Do you ever wish you could predict how a new team member will perform—before they even start? In this episode, Shannon Waller shares why she relies on profiles like Kolbe and PRINT® to build high-trust, high-performance teams. Discover how these tools help you delegate with confidence, eliminate mismatched roles, and leverage each person’s Unique Ability® so your entire team wins.
Show Notes:
Profiles eliminate guesswork by revealing how team members naturally strive, think, and contribute.
Trust and collaboration deepen when you understand a team member’s innate strengths, motivations, and problem-solving instincts.
The Kolbe A™ Index reveals how someone takes action (their striving instincts) and in what situations they’ll resist taking action.
CliftonStrengths® highlights top talents so you can assign roles where people will excel effortlessly.
Working Genius® identifies which parts of a project energize someone (like inventing or executing) and which drain them.
Entrepreneurial teams thrive on adaptability, and profiles create stability by clarifying who does what best.
The strongest teams balance different strengths instead of duplicating the same skills.
Profiles also prevent pigeonholing by showing the full picture of a person’s capabilities, not just one trait.
Hiring based solely on experience is risky—profiles uncover hidden potential that resumes miss.
Using an Impact Filter™ helps you define the “why” behind a project so you can align the right people with the right tasks.
Overall, investing in profiles delivers measurable ROI—better hires stay longer, perform at higher levels, and require less management because they’re operating in their areas of Unique Ability from day one.
