Cultivating Leadership at Thoroughbred Advisors
This guide is for reflection and accountability. It is not a checklist. Use this resource to understand our leadership standards and discover your path to growth.
Our Leadership Standards
Leaders are responsible not only for their production but for strengthening our entire organization through recruiting, development, and fostering a thriving culture. Every manager is expected to embody these principles.
1. Production
- Are you ready to lead from the front with consistent, reliable production?
- How can you set the example through your own results?
2. Replicable System
- Do you use a clear, consistent system that works regardless of environment or team? This can be something you created or agency-provided tools and concepts.
3. Teach
- Are you willing to actively teach and mentor others?
- Can you simplify your strategies so they can be transferred to someone new?
4. Inspire
- How will you inspire others to adopt winning methods?
- Can you build influence so people follow your lead because they want to?
5. Recruit
- How will you consistently bring new people into the business?
- What can you do to help them stay and thrive?
6. Personal Development
- Are you committed to seeking coaching to strengthen your leadership capability?
- What will be your focus for the next quarter?
