But after all the sweat and agitation at the end of every day -- you can't necessarily say that you've created the constructive urgency that moves groups to bigger and better things. You need to re-assess, to create urgency that works for you, for the individuals you lead, and for the organizations you aim to take into the future.

Feel Like a Slave to Your Business
To begin, let me ask you some revealing questions. As a business owner, can you walk away from your business today for one or two months and come back to find it operating smoothly and profitably?
