How are Your Employees Feeling About their Fellow Team Members and Their Future with Your Company?
This week, I want to dive deeper into the LEVEL TWO – or as I call it GEAR TWO – statements that every employee is asking and assessing on a daily basis.
These Gear Two statements are related to their supervisor and managers – the leadership of the business – and to their future with the business.

How Can You Keep Your Employees WITHOUT Requiring a Signed Non-Compete?
You’ve probably heard the reports that the Federal Trade Commission, better known as the FTC, has issued a ruling that is intended to promote competition by banning all non-compete clauses issued by companies to their employees.
I’m going to recommend that every business owner use this warning shot as a reason to double-down on creating a work environment that supports and builds a “radically-engaged” team.

How Good are You at Catching People Doing Things Right?
No matter how good they are at their job, the majority of employees feel that their immediate supervisor or direct line manager focus WAY MORE on the things they get wrong than those things they do well.
Great talent is hard to find. And when you have great talent, the LAST thing you want is for them to be discounted and disenfranchised from the business.

Why is it SO HARD to get your Team members to do things the way YOU want and need them to do it?
Truth be told, it’s not impossible at all. In fact, it’s simply a math equation! That’s right. Getting someone to do what you need or want them to do is ALL about getting the math right. You get the math right, and the other person will do what you want, without exception, every time – like magic!

How Effectively do you Clarify the Roles and Responsibilities in your Organization?
If you’re like most business owners I’ve met, one of the biggest challenges you’re facing is making sure everyone on your team knows, with certainty, what they are responsible for and what you expect from them in their position.
Today I want to share a method that you may find useful – or you may find the concepts worth modifying to fit into your new hire orientation program and into your communications when someone gets a well-deserved promotion in your company.

Honestly, that’s what we’re doing together – trying to solve the biggest challenges in owning and running a business – and along the way, take the best path toward success – rather than getting stuck riding down the “stupid road” – the one full of potholes, dangers and pitfalls.

How Effectively are you using your Financial Metrics when Making Business Decisions?
Today I want to look behind the curtain and discuss how you are making important business decisions.
It seems that not a day goes by without you, the business owner, having to make at least one if not several important decisions related to your business.
When it comes to big decisions that impact the financial future of your business, the first step is to get crystal clear on this critical part of your Hedgehog Concept – your Economic Engine.

Who’s on Your Speed Dial List When Trying to Grow Your Business?
I think as business owners, we need to have a special list of people who are on our “speed dial” list when it comes to growing our business.
Let’s be honest, trying to grow your business without the help of other business owners can be VERY difficult and challenging.
