I Can Fix Your Computer But I’d Rather Fix Your Brain

There’s a certain obsession people have for fixing other people. It’s something we’re all guilty of.

One of the most difficult parts of running a business is asking for help. Whether that be from your team, or from an outside coach or mentor, admitting you can’t do it all yourself can be a real ego test. But if you’re really dedicated to growing your business, to taking it above and beyond, […]

Middle Management

Middle Management

Middle management is one of the most challenging roles to play in any organization. It’s easy to be a business owner. You just need to be accountable. It’s also easy to be an employee.
