Isn’t owning a small business a rollercoaster ride? One minute, you’re on top of the world, feeling like the king or queen of your own little empire, and the next, you’re biting your nails, wondering what curveball will be thrown at you next. The unpredictability? It’s both the best and the worst thing, right?
The Biggest Challenge: Managing People
But let me tell you, if there’s one thing that really grinds the gears of most small business owners, it’s… wait for it… PEOPLE. Yep, managing people is no small feat. I often ask business owners about their star employees, and the answer’s always the same: “They just get the job done, Chris!” It’s like music to an owner’s ears.
However, not everyone on the team is a superstar, are they? Sadly, no. Not everyone’s built to be a champ right out of the gate. Most need a bit more of your time, your focus, and yes, your leadership.
You’re Not Just Anyone – You’re a Leader
Now, here’s something to remember – if you’re running your own business, you’re not just anyone. You’re a rare breed! You think differently, take risks, and you’re not afraid to tread your own path. Most of your team might not be wired the same way. They’re content being part of the team, not leading it. They don’t want the stress and risks that come with being at the top. And that’s okay!
The key takeaway? As a leader, you can’t expect your team to perform miracles without your guidance, time, and effort. Being a great communicator, leader, and coach is essential for your team’s success.
