These days, with the pace of business being so fast, many managers and business owners feel they are running on the spot, spending all day replying to emails or attending meetings: activity that often has no meaningful outcome. Not being able to stand back and focus on the strategic picture can be detrimental to the growth of one's company. Many people are stressed- out, work late and have no proper quality of life.
The speaker will talk about his own experiences in addressing these challenges over the years, as his own business has seen double digit growth annually. He believes that with the right habits, procedures and people in place it is possible to run a smooth operation, satisfy the right type of customer and still go home at 6 pm every day to spend time with one's family.
