Even through times of great uncertainty, there are things individuals and businesses can do to ensure they have strong foundations.
This week, business growth, sales, and leadership expert Meridith Elliott Powell talks about the power of people and shares tips for creating a sustainable and growth-oriented platform through investing in the people that drive your business.
Your competition can do what you can do; they can make what you can make. The only real difference between you and them is your network and your reputation in the marketplace. That’s why it’s critical to give your employees the chance to learn and grow over time and surround yourself with people you can learn from. Within your business, it’s important to think about long-term viability.
One of the ways to work toward that is to build succession into every level of your business. That way, even when there’s upheaval as we’ve seen during the coronavirus pandemic, there will always be someone who can step into other roles and keep continuity for your brand.
What You’ll Learn:
- Build succession into your business
- Lead by example
- Use failure as a learning tool
- GIve employees opportunities to grow
- Build up your network of contacts
