A People-First Approach to Business – Part 2

Let’s face it, y’all, the real complexity of our businesses is our people. Simplification starts with smart management to empower them to thrive and, in turn, fuel your studio’s success. 

Learn more in Episode 644: A People-First Approach to Business – Part 2, as Coach Cara Hazelton continues her discussion with Amy Lefko, the author of People First. (If you missed Part 1, tune into Episode 639.) 

  • Embrace your role: think, talk and act like a leader to set a solid foundation
  • Do what you love: delegate your least-liked tasks to stave off potential dread
  • Learn your lessons: acknowledge mistakes, identify takeaways and move on
  • Escape wind tunnels: be willing to let go of processes that no longer work
  • Navigate flood zones: assess internal options before automatically hiring new staff

Plus, continually reinforce your value proposition, expectations and culture so your team is aligned. Access the how-to overview in Episode 644. 

Catch you there.

With grit and gratitude,
Lisé
