Listen Later

As we prepare for our upcoming September retreat, Staying On Top Of The Mountain, we’re taking a look at what it means in relation to business. 

The concept of ‘staying on top of the mountain’ is poignant in all areas of life, but especially when it comes to starting, maintaining and leading a small business. 

Once you have your business up and running, you build on that and grow and establish a solid share in your chosen market. As with anything though, it needs to be maintained if you want to remain stable and successful.

But what is actually at the top of the mountain? And how do we get there? Is it based on one achievement in life or in business? Or is it a series of continuous, never-ending achievements?

Let’s take a look...
