Are you the manager always looking over the shoulder of your employees, expecting your staff to be mini versions of you, and checking in so many times that you could have just done the project yourself? Do you micro-manage?

Good Hearted Business Owner & Leadership

Good Hearted Business Owner & Leadership
By Christina Suter on Mar 14, 2020 at 08:00 AM in Business Issues

The first principle of leadership I'm going to suggest to you is leadership of yourself. You want to take on and challenge the belief that you cannot be a good-hearted business owner and earn money. That you want to challenge the belief that you can't be kind to your employees while keeping them accountable, or that you can't be a good person and do marketing or be sales-y. If you hold any of those beliefs, my first challenge is to take those beliefs on and take on personal accountability for your personal growth in that area. Take on a personal willingness to get out of your own way and to be a leader on the face of this planet. Your purpose is about you being a leader in your family, business, and your own life, which includes a willingness to be right or wrong. Your "yes" and "no" make a difference, be willing to stand behind what the outfall is from making a yes or no decision.

The Currency Of Employment

The Currency Of Employment
By Christina Suter on Mar 07, 2020 at 08:41 AM in Business Issues

Your employees and independent contractors relate to you similar to the manner that a child does to a parent. You pay them, you provide their financial stability, so, they are dependent on you. If you are a business owner who divulges too much information, whether about the business or your personal life, you run the risk of crossing boundaries.

Owners of even the smallest business have someone who helps them, whether it's a spouse, friend, editor, or site developer. Those people, if paid, are your employees.
