Building Effective Teams: From One to Two and Beyond

In this episode of the In Good Company Series, Luke Evans (The Agency), Jacqui Barnes (Laing+Simmons), and Rob Matheson (Cunninghams) explore how agents can grow from a solo operator into a strong team. They discuss when to hire, whether to prioritise admin or associate support, and why aligning roles to an agent’s strengths is crucial. With leadership, communication, and clear systems at the core, the trio highlight that sustainable growth comes from letting go of control, protecting time for dollar-productive work, and creating a culture where the whole team buys into the vision.
