Speaking with someone I hired years ago, he said it stood out to him when we worked together how I had emphasized that we all needed to think like owners of our company.
When making a decision, I encouraged people to say to themselves: "If this was my company, what would I do?"
Some corporate types told me that was a very risky thing to say. "What if they take advantage of the expense account, or make bad decisions!" they would argue.
For me, it wasn't a risky move. In fact, all it took was a belief that people are fundamentally good, and knowing that owners do whatever it takes to succeed.
I'd love to hear from you. Tell me where you are, or book time straight into my calendar. If we speak, it's a working session, not a pitch. You'll answer three short questions when you book, so we start from something real.
