Build a Business You Love Quotes

“In addition to operationalizing your culture, building a solid leadership team, and landing a sound strategic plan, you’ve also got to identify and implement processes you can rely on. Up to a point, personal heroics, like working late and working on the weekends, are enough to get stuff done. But eventually that breaks down. There literally aren’t enough hours in the day to keep up. To scale your business, you need processes that generate repeatable results and don’t require you to hire more and more people to manage them.”

“We talk about the good things as well as the bad things all the time—with all our team members. Why? Because we’re all adults, and we treat our team like adults. We know that if we don’t communicate or if we communicate poorly, the team will fill in the blanks for themselves. And because it’s human nature to assume the worst, they’ll create a scenario in their minds that’s ten times worse than reality. No team on earth can be effective or productive in that kind of environment, so we overcommunicate to keep it from happening.”

“the five enemies of unity: Poor Communication A team must be on the same page. If the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing, disunity, anger, and frustration will fill your company. Lack of Shared Purpose A lack of a shared purpose causes a lack of unity. If the team doesn’t share the goals of leadership and of each other, there isn’t unity. Gossip I absolutely hate gossip. If people have an issue, they need to speak up to their leader, not out to their teammates who can’t fix it. Unresolved Disagreements Disagreements that go unresolved grow. They eventually paralyze people. Leaders must step in to help resolve the problem. Sanctioned Incompetence When a team member is incompetent, for any reason, and leadership won’t act, the good team members become demoralized.”
