It is a leader’s most precious commodity because it’s typically the resource which is the scarcest in supply.
In order to build a more profitable, more productive company, a leader needs to acquire the productivity mindset.
You need to be more efficient in order for your team to be more efficient.
Join Michael and Jim as they share unique tactics for enhancing your productivity.
One of the greatest challenges in making the leap to becoming an entrepreneur is figuring out how you’ll be able to replace your current paycheck.
Unless you are independently wealthy and don’t need to worry about generating income from your business, you’re going to need to solve this problem early on in your entrepreneurial journey.
Should you pay yourself when you’re launching your business…and if so, how much? Then, once the business is up and running and stable, what should be your long-term compensation strategy?
Join Michael and Jim as they explore these essential questions.
Just because you wear the title of business owner, doesn’t necessarily mean you’re a good leader.
And, in almost all cases, if you want to win on your bottom line, you’ve got to win with your people.
The good news is that although some are more innately gifted at leadership than others, everyone can take their performance to a higher level.
Join Michael and Jim as they lay down some priceless guidance on what it takes to be the great leader your business desperately needs.
If you aren’t managing your clients…then they most certainly will be managing you.
Once that happens, you’ll be miserable, your team will be unhappy and the business relationship will rapidly start losing money.
You don’t need more clients. You need more GOOD clients. Ones who want you to lead and who respect what you do.
Join Michael and Jim as they explain how to manage your clients in a way they’ll appreciate and that will make your company more profitable…and more enjoyable.
There is a prevailing sentiment among business consultants that most leaders hurt their team by micromanaging every person and every process.
However; there is a flipside to this and it often is even more damaging to a company. That is, when the entrepreneur is rarely to be seen.
Do you tend to be overly heavy handed in your leadership style? Or do you lean toward being too absent when your presence is needed?
Join Michael and Jim as they offer their take on this as they share the story of the “footsteps in the field”.
The greatest leaders develop a keen sense of perfect timing.
Just like a gifted farmer, they know when to till the soil, when to plant the seeds and when to harvest.
Are there times when you’re too late to the market? Or when you hold onto a strategy when it’s no longer bearing fruit?
Join Michael and Jim as they share hard earned lessons in being a leader for all seasons.

If you’re a leader, you’re going to make bad decisions.
And, if you’ve been leading for a long time, you’re going to have made quite a few of them.
For entrepreneurs, making decisions is a daily responsibility and the bad ones can literally take a company down.
Join Michael and Jim as they share strategies on how to best remedy those inevitable slip-ups, whether they are small ones or enterprise threatening.
All dreamers must first be fools.
For entrepreneurs, this is especially true in that we must often risk so much in order to pursue our dream.
And so many times, we’re chasing a vision that only we can see.
Still, there are those occasions when the party is clearly over. When the dream has become a nightmare and we’re only hanging on because we’re too deluded to do anything else.
Join Michael and Jim on this business critical topic.
Momentum is a welcome friend to any business owner.
It’s exhilarating for you and your team when you’re on the right track, and picking up considerable steam.
But, what happens when you suddenly realize your vision is off course and needs to take a sizable detour?
Navigating through a difficult transition is one of the most challenging leadership tasks you’ll face.
Join Michael and Jim as they share their past stories and offer solutions in making it through the inevitable difficult patches of your entrepreneurial journey.
