Building A Practice On Purpose Series Part #4 Identifying the Fear-based Culture of Your Business
In the personal life coaching I do as a Life On Purpose Coach I work with my clients to help them uncover their Inherited Purpose. This is the fear, lack, struggling to survive-based force that shapes people's lives especially whenever we feel threatened which for most people is quite often in today's times. One way to think of a business is that it's a group of people who have come together for a common cause or purpose. For a veterinary practice that is generally to offer services to pets and their owners. So, it makes sense that when a group of people come together that their individual Inherited Purposes also come together to form a fear-based culture of business.

How to Earn Respect at the Office
Many struggles at work can be attributed to one major symptom: a lack of respect from your co-workers, subordinates or supervisors.
