Understanding the essence of leadership and teamwork defines the most appropriate answers for this question. Therefore the following points hold:
1.) The team leader must dedicate convenient number of hours daily for his SFI business. Daily time table is quite important and he should stick to it. He should also maintain consistent communications with his downlines and upline support team. His leadership page must not be negelected, including his bulk mailing system in his "to-do-list," that is PSA, CSA, and geneology mailing list. He should however apportion it piecemeal, that is bit by bit, so that they don't get overwhelmed by lots of information. For that also will in turn overwhelm the leader himself/herself. These will faciliate a most effective sharing of knowledge to the benefit of the entire team and far less stress in reading or trying to read everthing, firsthand. Though he must not neglect his share of firsthand reading.
2.) He must make use of SFI's resources like the "movers tab" on his SFI homepage. Here he needs to click on the name of any of his downlines to access his/her VP ledger. There he will be able access the tasks done and those yet to be done, and thereby offer precise assistance to whatever moment's need, rather than trying to give information on whatever questions he might guess to be the need of his downlines. That could be quite overwhelming.
3. He should not concentrate on so many downlines. Rather his first approach in managing his downlines should be to know those who have zeal zeal and are already working quite hard. They are called his "movers." For such downlines have already enough SFI business knowledge to be working hard. Having identified them, he can then focuss on them to aid their attainments to various leadership positions, like E.A (Executive Affiliate), BTL (Bronze Team Leader), STL (Silver Team Leader), GTL (Gold Team Lesder), and PTL (Platinium Team Leader). This he can do by throwing open contests, reassignment of affiliates e.t.c to really encourage them since their success is his success.
4.) He must agree that not all he tries to lead will be willing to be lead or even show serious interest. Therefore he must not border to have all come along. That could be quite stressful. He should rather learn to sponsor new affiliates from time to time into his team. Because he may get new ones that will be far more zealous to read SFI guidelines and work. Therefore far less stressful for him.
5. Finally as he helps his downlines to attain these various leadership position mentioned above, he should let them clearly know that their ability to do to their own respective downlines what he did to them, defines the greatest success/profit ever, for them, in their SFI business endeavours. This is DUPLICATION.
With these points implemented it will not only be not overwhelming, but also quite efficient and successful.
