Xledger’s partnership with Bristol Sport and Bristol Flyers is built on shared values of excellence, teamwork, and empowering people to reach their full potential. Taylor Stevens, Project Manager at Xledger UK, sits down with Flyers Head Coach, Andreas Kapoulas and Operations and Team Manager, Mike Edkins to discuss how they prepare for success.
Whether you are a part of a finance team or a professional basketball team, empowering team members to take ownership of tasks and make decisions helps teams stay agile, and adapt to challenges.
Just like athletes rely on each other to perform at their best, project teams need to ensure they’re holding each other accountable to meet client expectations. A culture of responsibility, clear standards, and trust allows teams to succeed while empowering individuals to take ownership and make decisions helps create smoother workflows and fosters innovative problem-solving.
Every team member plays a crucial role, no matter how visible their position is and recognising the importance of both strategic and supportive roles helps build a motivated, cohesive team.
Focusing on controllable factors, such as refining processes and maintaining clear communication, helps teams stay on track despite external pressures. By embracing accountability, adaptability, and teamwork, Xledger’s approach mirrors the dynamics of a high-performing sports team, ensuring success both on the court and in the office.
