Small Business Tips to Hire Great Employees – Listen To Your Gut
Have you ever had a hunch? How about gut feel? All of these are euphemisms for intuition.

For 20 years I taught logical and rational decision making processes around people management to executives, but found that something was missing. Even the most rational and logical processes could go totally wrong unless intuition was allowed air time.

How to Write a Results-Oriented Job Description
Job descriptions are necessary to communicate job responsibilities to employees, but you’ll waste your valuable time writing traditional task-oriented job descriptions. Instead, write job descriptions in a powerful results-oriented style that brings new meaning and job clarity to employees. Here’s a simple structure to use.
Don’t Waste Your Talent
As I watched the football play-offs over the last few days, it struck me how we need to consider our talents and how they fit into this game called life. What position can we play that brings us excitement, challenge and success? A position that allows us the opportunity to work hard yet is worth the effort. A position where sometimes we succeed and sometimes we fail but always feeling the importance of the position as it delivers benefits to the team?
Clear Goals Need Clear Roles
Job descriptions evolve over time. But all employees, new or old, need to have a clear understanding of their role in a company and what is expected of them.

Delegation, the Key to Small Business Growth
In his bestselling book, "The E-Myth Revisited," Michael Gerber suggests that you prepare an organizational chart for your business right from the get-go, complete with descriptions for each job you currently perform.

The Wiggler, The Stickler, and The Hermit
Understanding the tendencies of managers can be very entertaining and humorous. Learning to identify the common challenges faced by many managers can enlighten us to the point that we improve our own performance. Labels can help us identify both the success and failure we all experience when assuming a leadership position within an organization. As you read this, I encourage you to examine these labels for both intrinsic and extrinsic value. In other words, do you sometimes exhibit behavior that can be indentified with each label? Have you worked with others that fit these descriptions?
