Small Business Leadership
Are you a small business owner and do you really care about your employees?
I mean do you really care about them – not just say you do?
Small Business Staff
No doubt your small business is important to you. However it may not be as important to your staff. You’re the business owner and you’re the leader so therefore you should be taking the lead.
Stop thinking about money so much and start thinking about your staff more.
This is what good leadership is about.
If you really care for your staff then they are more likely to be loyal to you and work harder.
But this is not just as ‘shallow’ care for them. You really need to actually care for them and what is going on in their lives. They have separate lives away from work just like you do and as a leader you need to engage with them and find out what means the most to them.
Show Leadership
This is what a true leader does. He or she cares for their staff and actually cares for the well being of their staff. Leadership may not be what you think it is.
Leaders work hard at putting others first.
Does this sound a bit silly?
Why don’t you try it and see what sort of response you get from your staff.
