Successful Businesses are led by strong leaders.

What is the difference in thinking like a business owner or a CEO?

A Business Owner:

• Works IN the business, not ON the business
• Always in “putting out fires” mode operation, and consequently feels drained
• Makes decisions from fear and as a result is not taking the long view of his business
• Does not see a clear vision for his business and his life
• Afraid to try new concepts and is therefore stuck with…
• A stagnant business model

A CEO:

• Makes quick decisions with precision – Understands Proactive vs. Reactive decisions
• Gets “Buy in” with employees with new ideas and protocols, therefore creating a cohesive team
• Adapts proactively to know when to make adjustments to the model quickly to stay competitive
• Is almost always comfortable taking calculated risks
• Innovates especially well
• Balances being tough and emotionally sensitive
