Challenges in Building a Team
00:01:01
Speaker
Is it hard to build a team?
00:01:02
Speaker
What are your experiences?
00:01:03
Speaker
Miko, we are going to be back.
00:01:09
Speaker
Mahira pero maganda rin kasi yun sa technology natin.
00:01:13
Speaker
So I use Slack.
00:01:15
Speaker
I use Airtable.
00:01:16
Speaker
Nag-try ako pero nawindang ako.
00:01:19
Speaker
Sabi ko balik na lang tayo sa Trello.
00:01:20
Speaker
Nawindang ako doon kasi pinag-aralan ko hindi ko maintindihan.
00:01:23
Speaker
So yun.
00:01:24
Speaker
Yung sa communication tool.
00:01:26
Speaker
So ginagamit ko yun yung WhatsApp for security to urgent communication.
00:01:32
Speaker
Yun.
00:01:32
Speaker
Yun yung...
00:01:34
Speaker
It's just challenging for you to see the difference between the time difference.
00:01:37
Speaker
Because there are different times, then there are deadlines.
00:01:41
Speaker
And communication is urgent.
00:01:43
Speaker
Because if it's delayed, if the show notes delay, the editor has already edited, it's been added to the show notes.
00:01:52
Speaker
It depends on whether it's delayed, then the show notes will not do anything.
00:01:55
Speaker
So, that's just the challenge I've seen.
00:01:58
Speaker
But so far,
00:02:00
Speaker
God bless technology unless walang internet or nag-outbreak sila or yan ang problema.
00:02:08
Speaker
See, dahil walang lagi si Miko, hindi siya nakapag-roll the ball.
00:02:12
Speaker
Si R.A.
00:02:16
Speaker
Sa akin naman, siguro yung quality assurance.
00:02:20
Speaker
Although trusted naman yung quality sa team, pero syempre, ikaw pa rin yung direct na...
00:02:26
Speaker
Contact client and they will be able to meet you
Quality Assurance Processes
00:02:31
Speaker
all.
00:02:31
Speaker
There are times when you serve multiple clients and the episodes you need to be able to meet.
00:02:38
Speaker
You are a QA, you are going to review.
00:02:44
Speaker
So, it's all the tasks.
00:02:46
Speaker
It's the quality of the audio, the show notes, the audiograms, the social media.
00:02:53
Speaker
So, you need to check each other, so you can pass it to the client so you can less back and forth of the review points of the client.
00:03:05
Speaker
That's
Delegating Tasks and Building Trust
00:03:07
Speaker
it.
00:03:07
Speaker
You, Se.
00:03:08
Speaker
For me, more than the tech and QA, when I started to delegate, I was a problem with trust issues.
00:03:17
Speaker
Because, of course, coming from a one-man agency handling multiple clients.
00:03:22
Speaker
Because, since I was so lunatic at work, I handle 10 shows by my own.
00:03:28
Speaker
And, no, I didn't have a feeling.
00:03:31
Speaker
Parang ako lang yung marunong dito.
00:03:33
Speaker
Pag ipinagawa ko ito sa iba, magkakamali sila, let's mawala yung client.
00:03:37
Speaker
Alam niyo, yun yung parang naging struggle ko nung una na hindi ko siya mapakawalan yung task kasi natatakot ako na mawala yung client.
00:03:47
Speaker
And then, it was a trigger for me.
00:03:49
Speaker
I had time with my kids.
00:03:49
Speaker
My first time I had school, my kid was not a kid.
00:03:50
Speaker
So, I had a kid.
00:03:50
Speaker
I had a kid with my kids.

00:04:15
Speaker
So, I had a kid.
00:04:15
Speaker
So, I had a kid.
00:04:16
Speaker
So, I had a kid.
00:04:16
Speaker
So, I had a kid.
00:04:16
Speaker
Pasaway kasi ako nung mula.
00:04:17
Speaker
Wala talaga yung process.
00:04:19
Speaker
But eventually, I needed to step up and do delegation.
00:04:23
Speaker
Ayan.
00:04:23
Speaker
Ikaw ating Eloy.
00:04:25
Speaker
The challenge is probably the same.
00:04:27
Speaker
Like RA, QA.
00:04:27
Speaker
The CCE, the trust.
00:04:28
Speaker
In my case, the most important thing is the delegation.
00:04:32
Speaker
I'm hard to identify where he's going.
00:04:36
Speaker
So you have to let me know if you're already struggling.
00:04:51
Speaker
Well, ano ako, hindi, kumpaga, bigay lang ako ng bigay unless you tell me something na merong mali.
00:04:59
Speaker
Saka lang ako mag-i-step back and then I will, ano, parang o-audit ko nga.
00:05:03
Speaker
Teka nga, oo nga, ano, baka binibigay ko sa kanya to.
00:05:07
Speaker
Hindi naman pala ito yung, ano niya, core skill niya.
00:05:11
Speaker
Kaya parang, ano, revamp ako ng revamp.
00:05:14
Speaker
I've been looking for it because I didn't identify myself that I was going to say, this is what I was doing.
00:05:18
Speaker
I gave everything to them.
00:05:20
Speaker
And then, I said, I should know what I'm doing.
00:05:22
Speaker
Because I know that I was doing it.
00:05:25
Speaker
If she's doing trust issues, I can give it.
00:05:28
Speaker
I gave it.
00:05:28
Speaker
And then...
00:05:38
Speaker
I expect a hundred percent results like mine.
00:05:42
Speaker
That's what I was doing.
00:05:45
Speaker
Which is, I think, a very bad experience.
00:05:48
Speaker
So I'm sorry.
00:05:49
Speaker
Forgive me for what I'm talking about.
00:05:52
Speaker
You, Kai.
00:05:55
Speaker
Okay.
00:05:56
Speaker
So, for me, maybe...
Teaching and Filtering Team Members
00:05:59
Speaker
The advantage is that I have a group that I teach.
00:06:03
Speaker
One of my strategies is to teach and to filter what I can get to be with me in the agency.
00:06:14
Speaker
So the challenge we made for podcast editing before.
00:06:17
Speaker
It helped me filter who I can trust because you will be able to see a preview of who the action takers, who the performers.
00:06:26
Speaker
So, the preview I saw there was like, at some sort, my trust was advanced.
00:06:32
Speaker
So, okay, I can try this.
00:06:34
Speaker
So, I think that's the advantage.
00:06:41
Speaker
But as we go along, of course there are roadblocks and such.
00:06:47
Speaker
I think my struggle is that there are certain things that you can see, but you can't put it into words.
00:06:56
Speaker
So you need to construct it.
00:06:58
Speaker
I have understood that it should be different.
00:07:04
Speaker
kahit ikaw minsan lito ka, paano mo i-explain?
00:07:06
Speaker
Ganon.
00:07:07
Speaker
So, ayun, ginagawa ko ng loom, tapos minsan kinakausap po yung sarili ko, paano ba to?
00:07:12
Speaker
Paano kayo i-explain?
00:07:13
Speaker
Like, for example, sa editing.
00:07:15
Speaker
Sa editing kasi, kung bagay yung sa audio-wise, yung sa loudness, ganyan, basta yung sa audio-wise, ano yun, that's another thing.
00:07:22
Speaker
Pero yung content-wise, for example, may part na kailangan kang i-cut, pero kailangan complete yung thought, that's another skill, eh, of a podcast editor, na...
00:07:32
Speaker
I think, ano, yun pa yung isang kailangan kong tulungan yung mga editors ko ngayon.
00:07:38
Speaker
Pero so far, they're doing great naman.
00:07:40
Speaker
So, yun, siguro yun yung, ano ko, yun yung isa sa mga, ano ko ngayon, challenges.
00:07:45
Speaker
Ayon.
00:07:46
Speaker
Okay.
00:07:47
Speaker
This is really good, no?
00:07:48
Speaker
Kasi for those who are really thinking about, you know, leveling it up after you know the ideas, parang, ano ka na eh, yun na yung kasunod mo, yun na yung next talaga sa level mo.
00:08:05
Speaker
I hope that episode helped.
