Featured Blog: Strategic Business Owner DOs and DON’Ts

 

At The Growth Coach, we work to help people improve their business, find more success and balance their lives, but most of it essentially comes down to one major thing: the strategic mindset. Embracing a strategic mindset can be a difficult task, especially for small business owners who are continuously wrapped-up in the technical elements of the business. But stepping back and working ON your business instead of IN your business is vital to your success now and to your ability value and sell your business, or pass it on to a family member, later.

So what does a strategic business owner or a strategic leader look like? Glenn Smith, the Growth Coach of Houston, posted a wonderful blog earlier this week giving a run-down about what strategic business owners do and, maybe more importantly, what they do NOT do. Some highlights from the to-do list include working smarter, leveraging the talents of your team and developing business plans and systems. Some of the not-to-do items are things like being a micromanager, working too much in the technical part of the business and having a jack-of-all-trades outlook.

Check out Glenn Smith’s blog for his full run-down – and to see what changes you can make for lasting improvements: http://www.thegrowthcoachhouston.com/becoming-a-strategic-business-owner-dos-and-donts/.
