What’s the most crucial aspect of running any successful business?
I’ve often thought about this subject and pondered upon it many times.
Is it having a good product that offers exceptional value?
Is it about having a strong marketing plan that drives market awareness?
Is it having a strong sales methodology that transforms growth and drives market share?
Is it about internal processes, protocols and procedures?
Is it about inspirational leadership?
When you think about it, the crucial aspects of running any business in any market may be a combination of all the above.
However, in order to achieve true success the most crucial aspect to any successful business no matter which industry you are in… is actually your team members, your people! It’s the talent that you have within your organisation that drives innovation, production, sales etc.
“Nothing happens before someone is willing to do something.”
Your employees are actually the most valuable assets that you have in your business.
Having top talent within your teams is paramount to having a successful business. They are your front liners, your interface to the market and the whole core foundation of your business.
“Take care of your employees and they will naturally take care of your customers.”
But what makes someone an excellent employee and being a worthy addition to your team and helping your business?
I want you to take a moment to think about your most effective and productive staff members.
What has made them stand out? What has made them excel?
You may find that it’s a combination of their experience, attitude, dedication and the way they conduct themselves.
Finding and hiring ‘A‘ grade candidates to become your employees is one of the most important things to get right from the very start.
What is the overall cost to your business by getting this part wrong?
- It may mean lost revenue and bottom line profits.
- It could mean falling behind in production targets and worse yet, failing to meet deadlines and schedules.
- It could mean that you have to make other people take on way more responsibilities then they’re actually capable of and worse, lead them to burn out.
- It may also cause massive losses of your resources and time (and as the saying goes, time is money!)
- It could also mean losses in other critical areas of your business.
Time is valuable and you can’t afford to get it wrong by hiring the wrong people to work for you.
Your employees are the lifeblood of your business and by investing in the process of finding better quality employees…
