In every organisation there are ways to create opportunities or systems that allow leaders to listen, when leaders are willing to listen they’re going to make great decisions based on good information from the right people closest to the action.
The steps to achieve the business goal are now in place, reaching that goal now becomes inevitable because there are enough of the right people doing the right things to get there.
One of the key traits of an entrepreneur is supposed to be that they’re really single minded and driven. So there’s a paradox between listening and taking advice and being single minded and taking action.
The principle is the same in organisations and businesses. If the owner, founder or leader stands still long enough, the business will eventually organise itself around them.
Growing your business with the right people can be a challenge, especially for early stage and high growth businesses. For many, finding the right people often starts with a wish list of characteristics, behaviours, skills and experience before soon realising that they just can’t afford their ideal candidate.
